MY BELOVED ALFREDO SAUCE
Author: 
 
Ingredients
  • 4 cups grape or cherry tomatoes
  • ⅓ cup olive oil
  • 6 bulbs of garlic cloves, peeled
  • 8 cups or 64 ounces of heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 cups spinach
  • 16 ounces parmesan, grated - plus extra for serving
  • 2 pounds pasta (I used fusilli corti bucati)
  • Fresh or freeze dried basil
  • Red pepper flakes
  • Optional: sausage, chicken, or bacon
Instructions
  1. Heat oil in a pot over medium heat. Add tomatoes and allow to cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. They will begin bursting.
  2. Add garlic cloves and cook for 3 minutes.
  3. Add heavy cream, salt, and pepper. Cook over medium heat for 12-14 minutes to reduce cream, stirring frequently.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in spinach and parmesan. The parmesan will melt and the spinach will wilt. Sausage, chicken, or bacon could be added at this time as well.
  5. Top with red pepper flakes, basil, and additional parmesan.
