Does anyone have a tasty spaghetti sauce recipe that does not include tomatoes?

Alfredo sauce is very popular--a Google search would probably turn up lots of varieties.

Pesto sauce is good too.

My husband's favorite pasta sauce is simply olive oil sauteed with garlic, red pepper flakes, salt/pepper. I squeeze in a little lemon juice at the end. This sauce is also good mixed with a vegetable, like asparagus, and then put over pasta.

Philadelphia with garlic and herbs makes a great sauce, just tip the tub in (lazy and easy) lol

I'm allergic to tomatoes, so I love a great Garlic Alfredo Sauce with my pasta!

I had a leftover slice of pastrami one night but wanted pasta of some kind, so I made up this recipe.
The pastrami merely served as the saltiness. You could easily add bacon, ham, shrimp, etc., or no meat at all, still use a bit of olive oil to saute the spinach.

Thanks a lot for the suggestions and recipe. They sound so good, and for sure I will be using some of them soon.
You ladies are so helpful, and I appreciate your responses. I can tolerate a little bit of tomato, such as a slice on a hamburger, but not recipes with a large percentage of tomato.

You can also lighten the Alfredo Sauce a bit by substituting chicken stock for 2/3 of the amount of cream or half-and-half.
