Cajun Style Alfredo Sauce: 6/10
🚨NEW ITEM🚨 Trader Joe’s Alfredo sauces have been very hit or miss, but I’m glad they keep putting new variations out there since I’m a huge fan of Alfredo. Sadly, this one was a slight let down for me. The jar says it’s “bursting with Cajun style flavors” but I found it to be so mild and I could hardly taste the flavor at all. When it did come through I felt like it was practically a normal Alfredo with a hint of paprika and chili pepper. It has a hint of spice but I’d say it’s mild. I would’ve loved to be able to taste the creamy, cheesiness of the Alfredo more and more flavor from the spices. We tried this in a shrimp Alfredo with fettuccine (highly recommend the organic fettuccine noodles) and the seasoned shrimp added more delicious flavor. Overall, I don’t think I’d pick this one up again and would make my own Alfredo sauce at home. It’s $3.49 for the jar.
Have you tried this yet? What’s your favorite Alfredo from TJ’s?
My house was NOT a fan either. Didn’t taste like Cajun or Alfredo 🥴
i was definitely expecting more flavor to come from it! it was a yummy switch up but probably wouldn’t purchase again
😩😩 I have it sitting in my kitchen and was so excited to use it.
@rachelgeegee I would actually give this a 7.5/10 👍
Had it tonight….Aaaaamazing!!!
I wasn’t a fan of this sauce, I agree!
@bradynr94 I feel like you would like this!
Thanks so much for reviews! My boyfriend picked this up excited today and I got to knowledgeably tell him to grab the plain and we can season ourself! 🖤
I made this today and it was TRASH! Do not waste ur money, this was a complete miss 😢
This is so yucky I couldn’t even eat the pasta 🥴
My daughter adds more cayenne and paprika to it, but overall likes it. Decent base that is easily improved with a little extra spice.
I made this with shrimp too and some sauteed mushrooms and onions and thought it wasn’t bad. Could have had more Cajun flavor but my boyfriend is super sensitive to spice and thought it was a good balance. To each their own!
This was my first 1/10🤢
Nice 👍
@lori_lodi
I hated this one too
0/10 I did not like this at all
I agree that it wasn’t bursting with Cajun flavour, but nonetheless I still actually liked it 😅❤️! I threw a little pasta water into the sauce and served it over rigatoni with some grilled chicken on top. I thought it was super yummy! 😋
@elenaestra this is SO bad. I literally tried it on a fork before I put it in my pasta and thank goodness it was like pouring salt into my mouth. So bad
So disappointed ☹️
This one is terrible 😢
This is disgusting don’t buy it. 6/10 rating is way too generous. This sauce deserves a negative rating.
so gross I threw all my pasta away
