Vegan Alfredo Sauce!! This recipe is whole foods plant-based, gluten-free, oil-free & no nooch aka nutritional yeast. This is creamy & cheesy but made with only wholesome ingredients, just the way it should be. 🙂 This is a great way to treat yourself during the colder months and still eat healthy.
This amazing cheesy sauce is great on pasta, in quesadillas and a whole lot more. You could also use this on nachos or on gnocchi. If you prefer a yellow-toned vegan cheese, try this recipe: No Nooch Vegan Cheese Sauce.
It’s optional but I like to add a little plant milk to make it extra creamy. This time I used oat milk, but you could also use my Homemade Cashew Milk if you have some unsweetened handy.
This vegan alfredo sauce makes 4-6 servings, depending on how much you use. It stores well in the fridge and will thicken up too! Save for the next day if you want a thicker sauce. Top with my Raw Vegan Parmesan Cheese recipe for extra goodness! YUM. 😋

That looks like a great recipe! Can I make a bigger batch and freeze some? Thank you!

This is by far the best oil free vegan Alfredo sauce ever! A friend gave me some homemade pasta and I wanted to do more than just pour jarred sauce over it. I did a google search and voila! I found your site. I also made some of your parmesan and now I have a container to use for many meals to come. Thank you!
