Simple truth is Kroger/Smith's/Fred Meyer's house brand of organic products, including food and cleaning supplies.. They have quite a few vegan offerings, including tofurky like sausages and deli meats.
I found a Simple Truth vegan Bolognese sauce a few weeks ago, and then last week I found a vegan Alfredo!
The sauces are under three dollars which for vegan and organic is a great deal! I remember trying the Victoria Vegan Alfredo and it was horrible, and seven dollars a jar!! Ouch!
The sauce is vegan, and gluten free. It's made with unsweetened soy milk and soy, which I assume might be silken tofu? Not sure, but it isn't too high in calories or fat.
I made some gluten free spaghetti, and added some baked tofu for protein and some of the sauce. To say I was pleasantly surprised would be an understatement!! The sauce is rich and thick, and somehow has that kind of rich, fatty taste. It coated the noodles perfectly!! I enjoyed this mean tremendously! It did need a little dash of salt, and of course lots of black pepper, but that's it. I also added a little extra nooch, although it does have nooch in the sauce.
I really, really enjoyed this sauce. It didn't have that bean-y aftertaste that sauce made out of soy can have. It just tasted like a rich Alfredo.
I would serve this to non vegans very comfortably. I don't even know if they would be able to tell! Especially with a little vegan parm on top!!
Ten out of ten I will buy again, and I highly recommend!!!
If you notice, almost all of the cuddle pictures I post include Kiki! She knows how to get, or force the best cuddles!!!
Yep, I just had some today! My second jar. Amazing! And the price is almost unbelievable. Mine was $2.99.
ReplyDeleteI think mine was the same price. Pretty amazing price, and I'm still blown away by how delicious it is!! I will definitely be buying this again!
DeleteThat's awesome that you've found such a delicious Alfredo sauce!
ReplyDeleteSuch cuddly kitties!
It's so good, I was really surprised!
DeleteCuddle nation over here!
Sounds amazing! I made a silken-tofu based alfredo sauce at home a few nights ago, but it came out kind of bland. This sounds like it has an amazing flavour! And actually well priced!
ReplyDeleteThis really did have amazing flavor! I like the texture of sauces made from silken tofu, but it's hard to make it have a lot of flavor!
