Shrimp Alfredo

Creamy Shrimp Alfredo can be made into a reduced-dairy version thanks to the use of Almond Breeze® Almondmilk instead of cream or milk. This dish is quick enough for a weeknight meal and fancy enough for a dinner party or date night. Add a green salad on the side and a basket of crusty bread and your perfect Italian meal is complete.
