Kate Middleton’s Pasta Alfredo

Why I Love This Recipe
This is a great creamy saucy dish, and we like it best with our added veggies and protein. A favorite for sure!
Add a bag of frozen peas and add a can of garbanzo beans or white beans or sauteed Field Roast Apple Sage sausage to make this a complete meal with veggies and protein. Anne-Marie Sklarwitz
