The name does not lie.


I think my mom got this recipe from a neighbor a while back, and at that time it was called "Copy Cat Olive Garden Alfredo Sauce" but the recipes online now seem to be completely different. The special thing about this recipe is that it is SO much better than any jared Alfredo sauce (yuck) and yet it is SO easy. It's rich (we're talking really really rich) and cheap and can feed a crowd. My hubby will often cook this for lunch at the firehouse because it can easily feed half a dozen hungry men.
