The other day I went searching on the Internet for some good tofu recipes.
I came across a recipe for Tofu Alfredo sauce.
I really like Alfredo, but it normally really hurts my stomach afterwards, so I thought hmm this doesn’t have heavy cream in it, so let’s try it out.
After blending all the ingredients into a creamy sauce in the Blender, I put the sauce in a pan on the stove to heat it up…
Made some Whole Wheat Shell pasta…
and added some veggies to mine {and chicken to Hubs}…
Turned out quite nice! Hubs even liked it and he knew there was tofu in it. Score!

I do think it tasted better the next day. My sister came over and we had some for lunch the next day and the flavor was even better. I’ll definitely be making this again.

This is a great meal. wow, you prepared the pasta from scratch?
That looks delish. Did it hurt your belly? Alfredo does that to me too. I make an awesome mushroom and sun dried tomato pasta that is super light and a great night before the race/run dish.
Oh AND I got it off the back of the pasta box!
Pretty nice post. I just came across your blog and wanted to say

I’ll be subscribing to your feed and I hope you post again soon!
Well….it sounds gross, but it looks so darn good!! I’ve never had tofu before. Can you fax me a plate of my own? Make sure it gets here before lunch. Okay?
Never really tried tofu. Guess I must. I have only had it in miso soup, and it wasn’t bad. I hear it takes on the flavor of whatever you cook it in.
