Directions

  • Breeze Alfredo Sauce: Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add 3 tablespoons flour; cook and stir for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in Almond Breeze almondmilk and broth.

  • Option 1 - Tacos: Place sauce in a small saucepan and cook over low heat until sauce is hot. Stir in cheese, chiles, and seasoning blend and cook until cheese is melted, stirring occasionally.

  • Option 2 - Loaded Baked Potatoes: Pierce potatoes with a fork and place on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high for 10 to 12 minutes or until potatoes are soft when gently squeezed. While potatoes are cooking, place sauce in a small saucepan and cook over low heat until sauce is hot. Stir in cheese and sour cream and cook until cheese is melted, stirring frequently. Stir in broccoli. Carefully cut potatoes in half and fluff the insides. Stir half the sauce into each potato. Place potatoes on 4 plates and top with remaining sauce. Sprinkle with bacon bits and green onions, if desired.

  • Option 3 - Alfredo Pizza: Preheat oven to 425 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with foil. Spread sauce onto pizza and sprinkle evenly with cheese. Finish with any desired toppings, such as thinly sliced red onion, sliced olives, sliced bell peppers, cooked and crumbled Italian turkey sausage, or diced ham. Place pizza on baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges.

  • Option 4 - Spinach and Tomato Alfredo Chicken: Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and cook for 5 minutes on each side or until lightly browned and cooked through. Remove chicken from skillet. Add sauce and basil to skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until sauce is hot. Add spinach and tomatoes and cook until spinach is wilted. Add chicken back to skillet and turn to coat with sauce.

Cook's Notes:

Feel free to substitute the butter, cheeses, sour cream, and cream cheese with non-dairy or reduced-fat versions.

Substitute smoked mozzarella for regular mozzarella if desired.
