Hey everyone! Guess what? I finally got a mixer!
My wonderful parents bought me a stand mixer and breadmaker for my birthday! So now I'm back up and running; sorry for the delay!
I've also gotten about 5 more cookbooks since the last post.
Today I'm posting Fettuccine Alfredo from Allergy Proof Recipes for Kids by Leslie Hammond and Lynne Marie Rominger. It's a great book for picky eaters like me.
Also, I didn't realize I spilled flour/starch everywhere until after I took the picture. Whoops!
Fettuccine Alfredo: Dairy, egg, soy, nut, fish, shellfish, and gluten/wheat free.
Yield: 5 servings
Ingredients:
- Two 8-ounce boxes fettuccine or penne pasta (I only used one)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon or desired amount of fresh chopped garlic
- 1 cup alternative milk beverage (I used rice milk)
- 4 teaspoons corn, tapioca, or arrowroot starch
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (Mine was dried)
Directions:
- Cook noodles according to package directions, stirring frequently to ensure even cooking. Strain noodles and rinse with cold water.
- While noodles are cooking, heat the oil in a saucepan and saute the garlic. In a large bowl, whisk together the milk alternative and starch. Pour into the saucepan with the sauteed garlic and oil; bring to a boil over medium heat until thickened.
- Rinse noodles with hot water and strain into a bowl. Pour warm sauce over noodles. Sprinkle with parsley or chives.
What I thought: It was pretty good. It was a little bland at first until I added Italian seasoning. It also took quite awhile for the sauce to thicken and it never thickened completely. But overall it was a pretty good alternative to dairy containing alfredo.
Enjoy!

Yum! I really enjoy your blog. You inspired me to try out some vegan alfredo of my own. My hubby loves alfredo but it's a bazillion calories and dairy gives me tummy-aches. Got all the stuff yesterday, can't wait to try!
xoxo!
