SKINNY ALFREDO SAUCE

Steps:

• In a medium sauce pan, whisk together almond milk , cornstarch, garlic powder, and kosher salt. Turn heat to high and bring to a slow boil, whisking frequently so cornstarch doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
• Turn heat to low and continue to cook until slightly thickened, about 3-4 minutes.
• Whisk in cream cheese, one tablespoon at a time, until melted.
