Who doesn’t love alfredo sauce on their pasta? This version of creamy pasta is quick and easy, but also a much lighter version of the classic heavy alfredo version. You can easily change up the type of Olive Cart oil used in this recipe. Pair it with any of our wonderful pastas for a great meal or side dish.
