Alfredo Sauce

Alfredo Sauce is a rich, creamy Italian-style sauce commonly used on pasta and in casseroles; it’s known for its smooth texture and buttery, cheesy flavor. Nutritionally, Alfredo Sauce is relatively energy-dense at 150kcal per 100g and is high in saturated fat, while offering modest amounts of protein and some fat-soluble vitamins from the dairy ingredients. From a health perspective, it delivers dairy proteins with a complete amino acid profile and some micronutrients like vitamin A and B12, but it provides little fiber or plant-based protective compounds and is best enjoyed in moderation or swapped for lighter versions when you want to reduce saturated fat intake.
