Let me start by saying I have looked everywhere for how to make the best vegan alfredo sauce. I have tried countless recipes, to the point that my husband isn’t even able to tell me which one he prefers because he can’t remember. But now, I must say, I have found the best combination for a delicious vegan alfredo sauce. The key to this sauce is canned coconut milk. When making a vegan alfredo, you have to understand that it can never be fully like the real thing. There’s no vegan heavy cream. (As of now!) But this combination of flavors and ingredients is the best and closest I have come to imitating what was previously one of my favorite foods. It is really good served with some green veggies mixed in and topped with red pepper flakes and meatless chicken, if that’s your thing!
