Easy Alfredo Sauce(With Mushroom Broccoli Fettuccine)-Oil Free, Vegan
Have you ever seen the episode of the office where Michael Scott thinks it'll be a good idea to gobble down a giant dish of Fettuccine Alfredo right before he runs the 5K for Rabies awareness?
Of course, he vomits before he finishes. If I may say so myself, Michael would have been just dandy if he had eaten this version. It's not necessarily light but it's as light as an authentic feeling Alfredo Sauce can be, trust me.
The sauce is composed of 3 ingredients and is super creamy-dreamy, with much less fat than the regular version. Bonus? It's composed of two of the healthiest fats around, Avocado and Coconut, without a distinct taste of either of the two, while being protein rich from the Chickpeas.
Are you feeling comfy yet? I hope so. This dish is the ultimate comfort food without breaking your New Year's resolution(when's the last time you heard about a New Year's Resolution in May)!
Sautee some nutrient-dense Broccoli with mushrooms, onions, and garlic slap it all on some greens and you've got yourself quite a balanced meal! (Greens optional!)
