Alfredo is a favorite of mine! I’ve got a great, healthy cauliflower alfredo recipe. But some days you need something on the plate – stat. This recipe includes a yummy bottled vegan alfredo + some Jamaican spice. It’s truly delicious.

Ingredients

• 3 Tbsp vegetable broth

• 4 garlic cloves, minced

• 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into strips

• 1 red bell pepper, cut into strips
