Recipe Directions

  • 1. Throw all ingredients in the blender and blend 'til they get alfredoey! It'll get really nice and creamy, so keep blending... And you're done!
  • 2. Serve over raw vegan "noodles!"
  • Raw Noodles
  • Of course, you know that raw "noodles" are simply spiralized zucchini or squash. (Or kelp noodles that you buy at a store.)
  • If you don't have a fancy spiralizer nor any kelp noodles on hand, just do what I do: peel the vegetable and discard the peelings. Once all of the tough peel has been removed, just use your vegetable peeler to make "noodles" out of the remainder of the vegetable. I usually discard the really seedy core though. Zucchini makes the best noodles.
  • I'd recommend zucchini. They have the best texture and their taste is quite bland and it takes on the sauce's flavour very nicely. But please don't use cucumber for the noodles! (Cucumbers are too wet; avoid cucumber noodles.)

The Rawtarian's Thoughts

By The Rawtarian

I miss cheese, I really do. But I tell ya, this raw alfredo sauce recipe has a cheesy, creamy texture that is oh, so alfredoey.

I can honestly say that I like this alfredo sauce more than SAD (standard American diet) alfredo sauce. HONEST!

If you've tried my raw mayonnaise recipe the taste is quite similar, although this alfredo sauce is quite garlicky, whereas the raw mayo does not contain any garlic. Enjoy this absolutely delicious alfredo sauce recipe.

This recipe is quite large, and it actually keeps in the fridge really nicely.

This recipe works best with zucchini "noodles" (see below for more info) or with raw vegan kelp noodles.

Toppings

Sometimes I top my alfredo sauce and noodles with vegetables. Your taste-buds will let you know what topping you might like to try on your pasta.

My husband prefers broccoli and red pepper. I love parsley, mushrooms, tomatoes, and olives. To each his or her own! Edit: Actually, I love black pepper and parsley and that's it! Simpler is better!

But for your first time just try it simple: raw alfredo noodles and sauce.

Hi Natalie,

No, cashews (or macadamia nuts) are the only nuts that will work in this recipe. They are the "creamy" nuts.

Do not use other nuts - the recipe will not turn out :)

Yes! I've become a huge fan of zucchini noodles!

I keep realizing with each recipe that I do not need the same amount of "sauce" that I would put on if I was having the SAD diet recipes.

I had to drain off a lot of the "sauce" after I posted my photo. Who knew! :)

It could also be because the zucchini noodles like to release a lot of water, so that could be contributing to the sauciness problem too. :)

This recipe was AWESOME!!! Smelled, looked, and tasted like regular Alfredo sauce and noodles. Thought it was going to be bland but now I'm a Rawtarian believer. Next time I will use less garlic to suite my taste. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

This is INCREDIBLE. I almost don't even want to eat anything else with it. Also, it kind of tastes like an aioli. ❤️🙏🏼

I'm not vegan, but just wanted a healthier version of alfredo sauce. I had it with regular pasta and put browned mushrooms on top. It was an absolutely amazing sauce! Great flavour and so quick and easy.

Love it, Ann!!

Cashews are a very exciting substitute for a lot of creamy recipes, like cheesecake, alfredo sauce, creamy soups etc.

Have fun and keep experimenting!!

Can other nuts, like almond, macadamia, or walnut be substituted for this and any other recipes you have that call for cashews? Cashews are not approved for my friends daughter with brain cancer. She has asked me to come cook for her, as I have been following your site for myself...

P.S. I am not a robot, but this site asked me to type in the word problem. I am a natural blonde. I had to get my husband to help me find a word problem. ??? Then I typed the word : problem and I hope it works?

The only nuts that would work in this recipe are cashews and macadamia nuts (or pine nuts), because they are the creamiest nuts. No other nuts will work in this recipe.

PS: I feel you on the technology challenges!!
