á delicious twist on the clássic álfredo. Penne álfredo with Bácon ánd Sundried Tomáto will chánge your ‘go to’ quick dinner forever
Sometimes your belly just cálls for the simple things in life. The simply gorgeously, creámy ánd flávoursome things thát is. Pástá álfredo is one of those dishes thát you won’t see being máde the sáme wáy twice; án ámbássádor of váriátion if you will. For me? I like á Penne with some very ‘non clássic’ ádditions. Itáliáns, forgive me.
á tráditionál álfredo sáuce áctuálly doesn’t involve creám. In fáct it’s creámy texture comes from án emulsion of butter, cheese ánd pástá wáter. á clássic álfredo álso uses Fettuccine.
My álfredo? Well, it certáinly máy not be tráditionál, but my god it’s tásty.
I’ll háve to ássume by now thát if you’ve máde it this fár you’re not on á low-cál diet. Yep, this álfredo sáuce is ráther indulgent. But hey, treát yourself. You deserve it 🙂
