Dairy Elimination Recipes

Dairy-Free Fettuccini Alfredo

My dairy-free friend Valerie made a recommendation for an alfredo sauce recipe from Silk’s website. She came over today and we made it!

 

dairy free alfredo

 

It came out deliciously – almost better than my normal dairy-inclusive version! It smelled and tasted just like regular alfredo. We made the pasta with cashew milk and took the liberty of a couple of adjustments. Here’s the modified recipe I made (you can add any kind of meat or fish for protein as well!):

Ingredients

  • 16 oz fettuccine
  • 3 Tbsp canola oil, divided
  • 1/2 sweet onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 Tbsp flour
  • 4 Tbsp chicken or vegetable stock
  • 2 cups unsweetened cashew milk (or soy milk)
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp white pepper
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 2 Tbsp cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup vegan mozzarella shreds (I used Trader Joe’s)
  • Fresh chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare fettuccine according to package directions.
  2. While fettuccine is cooking, saute chopped onion and garlic over medium heat in 1 Tbsp oil until fragrant and translucent.
  3. Remove onion and garlic to separate dish and reserve.
  4. Add remaining oil to pan and stir in flour and stock. Simmer for 2 minutes.
  5. Stir in cashew milk, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, white pepper, and nutmeg.
  6. Whisk cornstarch into 1/4 c. cold water and stir into sauce.
  7. Add vegan cheese and return to simmer. Allow to thicken, stirring constantly.
  8. Stir in onion and garlic and pour over prepared fettuccine and stir well. Top with chopped parsley for garnish.

It's #caturday everyone!! 🐱 I would like to int It's #caturday everyone!! 🐱 I would like to introduce you to one of our lovely felines, though most of my video clients have already met this debonair fellow. Since I started working from home he has been demanding to supervise me as I work with clients, but he always dresses nice for work in his tuxedo.

This kitty goes on his exercise wheel (think giant hamster wheel 🙄😆) every evening around 10 pm. Sometimes sprints, sometimes intervals, sometimes a light stroll, but he rarely misses a workout! While he won't win any awards for being the smartest or the bravest cat in our household, but he's always good for a top-notch snuggle (and some dietitian assistance)! ❤️
