    I made this sauce to go with whole wheat fettuccine, roasted asparagus, mushrooms & onions... and it was sooo delicious! I doubled the garlic, but roasted it with the other veggies to cut down on the potency.
    I will definitely make this again! - 6/22/10

    The sauce was not as smooth as I would have liked but it tasted good. - 11/27/13

    This is a very good alternative to high fat alfredo sauces. It's quite tasty. I added extra garlic and a little extra cheese. As I found it to be a little thick, I added a bit of milk while I was blending it and it was amazing. - 8/1/11

    I'd like to try this recipe with whole wheat fettuccini, but omit the tofu. Instead of tofu I will blend raw or frozen broccoli and will then toss in chopped mushrooms and fried onion on top of the pasta. Gettin_Svelt gave me the idea to double the garlic...Mmmm...I can almost taste it. - 12/26/10
