Number Of Ingredients 8

1 jar Alfredo sauce
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
1 cup Liquid (use EITHER: (a) milk, cream or dairy alternative OR (b) chicken stock or broth)
1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded (finely, if possible)
1 tablespoon Minced garlic
1 tablespoon Crushed Red Pepper
1/2 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1/2 tablespoon Cajun seasoning

Steps:

  • Warm a large, non-stick skillet over medium-low heat with the minced garlic and any seasonings until you can start to smell and/or hear the garlic cooking
  • Add the jar sauce and stir
  • Gradually add cheese, a little at a time, stirring constantly until cheese is melted into the sauce.
  • If added cheese is making the sauce too thick or sticky, gradually add the liquid, a little at a time, stirring constantly, until you're back to the desired consistency.
  • Taste and/or smell sauce to add additional seasoning if necessary.
  • After the sauce is warmed and well-mixed together, then you can add any add-ins.
