This is a very nice sauce, however, I used sweet onion, a regular onion, and mushrooms, cooked. Then blended into the sauce. I really like the cottage cheese idea, and will from here try and make it into my own sauce by switching and add things into it. Thank you! VERY GOOD JOB!

This is a wonderful recipe. Best "non-authentic" Alfredo I've tried. As suggested earlier, I sauteed 4 mushrooms, 1/2 onion and added spinach. To avoid a big mess in the food processor, I used a hand blender in the same saucepan it was to be cooked in. Soymilk worked fine instead of skim.
