For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a clove of minced garlic to the Alfredo sauce while warming it.
Fresh herbs, such as chopped parsley or basil, can be used in place of dried herbs for a brighter, more vibrant flavor.
To prevent the pasta from sticking together after draining, toss it with a drizzle of olive oil.
Feel free to experiment with different types of pasta, such as penne, farfalle, or fettuccine.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or on the stovetop.
