Notes
*If you had rather skip the step of making the alfredo sauce you can always use a jar of your favorite Alfredo Sauce from the store instead.
However, I don't recommend using jar alfredo. Making alfredo sauce from scratch is easy and taste so much better. Just FYI
*If do not have a deep 9x13 baking dish, then you should place your dish on a baking sheet to catch any spillage while it bakes in the oven.
