A Different Kind Of Fettucine Alfredo

 Vegan fettucnine Alfredo is somethign of a golden unicorn. You can make the sauce at home but it's hard to get the ingredients. Then there's trying to find the easier already made ones. Luckily Tattooed Chef comes to the rescue with their version.

I like Tattooed Chef , especially their pizzas and mac and cauliflower. This was a no brainer and a surprise to see this in my local Acme. The package picture looked tasty.

However it was a bit dispiriting to see this.
It was going to take more than the necessary three tablespoons fo water and two tablespoons of olive oil. 
Howver after a few minutes those lumps turned into fettucine nests and chicken bites.
I added a bit more oil to give it more body and then it was steamed - sauteed for seven minutes. To be honest the portions were kind of small. Luckily I had some pasta  with salsa cruda and rotelli left over from yesterday so I added it.
The tomaotes and spices gav e it more color and flavor and there was enough for two people.
The two pastas werent bade mixed together and both were good with the combined sauce. Its not a bad side  but onits' own there should either be a hot veggie side or a salad to round it out.


Tattoed Chef's meatless fettuchine Alfredo is a nice addition to any dinner. It's a creamy , flavorful version of the real thing but better for you. Try it today for a nice change up from the regular red pasta sauces.
