Olive Garden Alfredo Sauce

Olive Garden Alfredo Sauce

I saved this recipe years ago from Jill, and we absolutely love it! It is easy to make and we've only made a few changes to it. This is excellent for dipping breadsticks in it. 

Olive Garden Alfredo Sauce

1 pint Heavy Cream (2 cups)

1 Stick Butter

2 Tablespoons Cream Cheese

3/4 Cup Shredded Parmesan Cheese (Real)

2-3 Tablespoons Flour (for thickening)

1 Teaspoon Garlic Powder

Extra Lawry's Garlic Salt as needed 

Add all ingredients into a sauce pan and cook over medium heat. Stir to keep from burning. Cook until it starts to boil and thicken. Season to taste, I add probably about an extra teaspoon of the Lawry's Garlic Salt (with parsley). Remove from heat and serve with cooked pasta and strips or chunks of chicken, cooked in seasonings or Lawry's Garlic and Herb Marinade, or Italian Salad Dressing.

I will say that this sauce isn't the best for baking in the oven though. I tried doing a baked Ziti meal with this sauce and the sauce was non existent after it came out of the oven. It kind of got absorbed into the pasta. It DID turn out delicious on pizza though. Also, in these pictures, I added my leftover pesto to the sauce, but I liked the original recipe more.
