VeganMoFo Day 10 Alfredo Sauce

Wednesdays will be pasta days this month, thanks to Thanksgiving. Today I'll be trying this alfredo sauce by Mary McDougall instead of the one I usually use.

I have no access except by mail-order for those boxes of Mori-Nu so I bought a 1-pound Naysoya silken tofu to use. To lower the sodium I'll probably skip the soy sauce. And knowing this family's love of the nooch, I'll definitely be adding a bit more than a tablespoon!

Although this would probably go okay over just about anything, today I'll be using eggless ribbon noodles.



The recipe and photo for the noodles come from this post on the Penniless Parenting blog.
