I had SO much fun doing this video recipe a few weeks ago with super talented YouTuber Sharzad Kiadeh, via her “My Dancing Kitchen” video recipe series. This Vegan Pumpkin Alfredo Sauce is super rich and creamy with accents of fresh ginger, maple, rosemary and more. This sauce is perfect as a fall-inspired pasta sauce but can also be served as a Pumpkin Bisque. So versatile!
Get the recipe and watch me show off some Britney moves in Sharzad’s kitchen as we make this dish!..
Fun + laughter + a recipe = perfect.
