How to Make Cheesy Alfredo Sauce With Mushrooms And Fresh Tomato

  1. Melt 1/3 cup (8 tablespoons) butter in a large skillet over medium heat.

  7. Reduce heat to low. Stir in 1 1/2 cups grated Parmesan cheese and 1 cup shredded cheese blend (mozzarella, provolone, or a blend). Stir until melted and smooth.
  8. Stir in 1/2 cup sour cream until fully incorporated and heated through.
  9. Gently fold in 1 cup chopped fresh tomatoes.
  10. Season with freshly ground black pepper to taste.
