The most delicious and flavorful homemade Alfredo sauce you will ever make!   This sun-dried tomato Alfredo sauce is a tried and true recipe. It’s the perfect blend of cheese and sun-dried tomatoes! 

This sun-dried tomato sauce is a quick and easy dinner solution.  You can make this creamy alfredo sauce in about 20 minutes.  It’s the perfect sauce for fettuccini, or just about any kind of noodle.  My family loves it with a now tie pasta and grilled chicken.  You can combine it with a little drizzle of fresh pesto and wowza, you’ve got yourself a yummo pasta dinner!!

Another way my family enjoys this dish is with breadsticks.  Regular Alfredo is sometimes a little bland but not this recipe! It’s the perfect combination of cheeses and a robust tomato flavor.

We also love to drizzle a little of this on steamed broccoli. It’s a kicked up version of broccoli and cheese.  It can be a great option on the keto diet since it’s pretty low in carbs too.

If you are a huge sun-dried tomato fan like I am, you will love this Sun Dried Tomato Pasta Bake or these Chicken and Cheese Stuffed Pasta Shells with Sun-Dried Tomato Alfredo  A great way to finish off this amazing meal is with Peanut Butter Corn Flake Cookies.  Oh my, heavenly!

Tips for making the Most Amazing Sun-Dried Tomato Alfredo Sauce:

• You can use shredded parmesan or grated parmesan or a mixture of the two.  This recipe is very forgiving.
• Be sure to add the pinch of Nutmeg.  It’s a sweet spice and will bring out the sharpness in the parmesan and add the complexity of this dish, just a pinch will bring a smooth sweetness to the entire dish.
• You can use this with just about any favorite noodle, steamed vegetable or breadsticks.
