Pumpkin Alfredo Sauce
I have always been a huge fan of alfredo sauce and when I saw the idea to add pumpkin puree to it the other day I thought I'd give it a try. It ended up giving it a creamier texture with the perfect hint of pumpkin. It was amazing on pasta, but would be incredible as a pizza sauce as well. If you have some leftover pumpkin puree and want to try something savory with it, this is a great option. And if you leave out the pumpkin, this is easily the best homemade alfredo you'll try. I promise! Pumpkin Alfredo Sauce Makes 8-10 servings 2 Tbsp. butter 1 clove garlic, minced 2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour 3 cups half-and-half 1 cup pumpkin puree 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese 3/4 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. black pepper 1/2 tsp.
