Wow! I decided to make this as our first exposure to a raw food dinner. It was amazing. My husband and I were both pleasantly surprised at how good and satisfying it was. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe!

This is the best sauce!! And with kelp noodles, it is a fantastic and healthy meal. I added quite a few leaves of fresh basil so it became more of a creamy pesto...which was delicious with the noodles. I had it cold which was really tasty. I think it would be great with some lettuce and tomatoes, too.

This is so good and weirdly cheesey! I have tried less water plus tomato and and a little pecan and it's great as well! Just a table spoon of pecan I think in most cashew dishes adds a little slow cooked meaty taste borderline smokey? Idk if anyone has noticed that about pecans or if my new raw taste buds go crazy! Haha

This is delicious! I've made it twice already. The first time I followed the recipe word for word and the second time I switched up half of the cashews for brazil nuts. They were both so good!
Oh, and by the way, the kelp noodles were also delicious! I was very surprised that they were a little crunchy. I wasnt expecting them to be crunchy at all.

Thanks again!

I also added yeast, yummm!! Next time I'll use less water though because I like it thick and creamy (:

I am new to trying out raw recipes. I was really excited to see this recipe and I tried it with out the pine nuts, with extra cashews, and I wasn't the biggest fan. So added vegan cheese and I liked it a little better. I just found that the cashews made it taste sweeter than regular alfredo sauce, so I found myself pouring on the salt :(. Would almonds we a good supplement if I didn't like the sweetness?

How many servings does this typically make?

Ok, so I made this for dinner tonight and my husband and I both absolutely loved it! My husband's comment was that it is even better then "real" alfrado :o)

I used all cashews since I didn't have any pinenuts and I soaked the cashews for about six hours first. The texture and ingredient proportions still seemed to work well even with the soaking. I put in more like 5 cloves of garlic since we really like it and served it over the zucchini "noodles". I also tossed in some of the lightly steamed broccoli that my kids were having for dinner (not raw, gasp!). I sprinkled chopped fresh tomato over mine and loved the addition, hubs prefered it without.

Certainly a "keeper", we actually decided it should go on the weekly rotation.

Oh, also, I haven't saved enough for my high speed blender yet so made this in my cuisenart and it worked. I put the ingredients in and just let it run for about 3-4min, stopping once to scrape the bowl. Just want to encourage other folks without blenders to give it a go as long they have a (good quality) food processor.

I tried this last night for dinner, and it came out great! Nothing at all lacking. Even my meat eating family loved it!

o.my.yum!! this is so delicious and so easy to make!! I'm totally in love with your recipes! I'm on my thirty day challenge and your recipes help me SO much! THANK YOU!!!!

p.s. my sister and mother both tried this sauce and they loved it too!

I'm about to try making the raw alfredo sauce... Gunna mix it in with a salad, if that doesn't taste great then I'll make a sandwich out of it.

This is my favorite go to recipe!!! I used it while on a 21 day raw food challenge and it was quite the hit. Now that I am done I am continuing to go to it while adding it to mung bean noodles!!! LOVE IT LOVE IT!

So good! I make a really great (unhealthy) vegan mac and cheese sauce and could not find anything raw that was comparable. This comes REAL close! (Also, I realize that this is not advertised as mac and cheese...but it's a suitable substitute).

It's so good, I made a quarter batch for lunch today to put on my salad and I'm remaking it for my bacon egg and cheese loving husband tonight for dinner.

Thank you for the recipe. I'm sort of new to all of this uncooking/unprocessed scene. This is a quick/easy/tasty comforting meal! Appreciated!

Any suggestions on what to do with the seedy parts of the zucchini afterwards?
I love your recipes!! They have helped so much!

This was DELISH!! :) So creamy and yummy.

Thank you so much for your recipes. I am new to the raw world and at first was pretty overwhelmed, but after reading your site I think this is something I can handle. :) Today I've made the celery soup, the brownies/frosting and the alfredo sauce. The soup is gone (yum), the brownies are chilling for tomorrow, and the alfredo sauce is tupperwared away to be eaten over the next couple days. Since you are a raw food genius, I am hoping you will come up with some Indian fare. ;) I adore super spicy Indian food. Now that I have a bit of confidence, I will definitely be playing around with curry and coconuts myself. :) Thank you again for helping me see that the raw food does not have to be difficult.

I just made this tonight and it was great! Now I'm just waiting for my grocery store to carry Kelp Noodles, which they said would be in about a week. How long will the sauce stay good in the fridge for?

How long will the sauce keep in the fridge?? Thank you!

Just made this to serve on zucchini noodles tonight. Added a handful of nutritional yeast and a drizzle of cold pressed olive oil. Yum!
I can't wait to try kelp noodles! Thanks!

Just discovered your site and am so inspired to make some of your recipes - especially the alfredo :) Just wanted to check to see if you knew that most "raw" cashews sold in shops are not truly raw....they are taken out of their outer shell using boiling water or oil! Check out the info at www.edenhealthfoods.com , they sell the truly raw cashews that I buy, they are way more delicious than normal cashews, bigger, crunchier and sweeter :)

Do you happen to know the amount of calories in alfredo sauce?

I made this last night & it absolutely was the best Alfredo sauce I've ever had. I raved to everyone! As a single lady, I halved the recipe & it made enough for two additional meals. I'm in day 3 of doing the raw diet & The Rawtarian is my bible! Thank you :)

I just made this for dinner tonight and the sauce is absolutely addictive. I added some miso and some nutrional yeast and omg it is gonna be so delicious over zuke noodles Thanks! xx

This recipe is incredible! My husband and I tried kelp noodles and were so surprized by how crunchy they were. Is that how they should be or was it a bad batch? Everyone is always talking about kelp noodles but I have never heard mention of such an extreme texture.

Just tried this recipe tonight and I sliced yellow squash, cucumbers and carrots in thin slices and them drizzled the sauce over it. Also chopped some fresh garden tomatoes over it and it was good. I don't know if anyone has ever tried this but I was thinking about trying it over raw rice - the Lotus forbidden black rice that you can soak overnight and then I drain it over the course of the day to eat for supper. Typically I serve it with an olive oil basil sauce or an olive oil chili powder sauce but I want to try it with the alfredo! Just wondering if anyone has tried it yet!

What is the black stuff in the picture? Looks like some black pepper but the bigger seed looking things are what I am talking about. Hey I love your site. I am not ready to go fully raw yet but I am diabetic and your recipes more than quench my sweet tooth and my blood sugar does not go sky rocketing over the moon. I love all the recipes so far so you may get me yet. Thanks for helping to improve my health my dear.

this is delicious!!! thx :-)
