I love the idea of cooking the pasta in the flavorful broth and milk. This sounds amazing.

ReplyDeleteCount me in Colleen.
DeleteLooks awesome but I'm hopeless with wine, what do you recommend for this?
ReplyDeleteYou can always substitute broth for the wine. If you want to know what kind of wine I used, probably a Chardonnay that I then ejoyed with dinner as well.
DeleteSuch an easy way to do a really flavorful Alfredo. Game changer!
ReplyDeleteYes, easy peasy and delicious
