Sensational Olive Gardens at home! The sun-dried tomatoes and artichokes should not scare you off, they intensify the deep cheesy sensation and don't predominate. Why, I think I'll make mac 'n' cheese with this sauce! This recipe will make 4 Olive Garden portions. I cut back for my personal serving and feel stuffed. Made for Photo Tag.
