Pretty good! It gets a little dry and I used less sour cream. I think even half a package would work.

I used 3 tbsp cornstarch as others suggested and cooked the sauce over medium heat. It didn't take long to thicken. Yes, strong on the onion, but we like that. I will definitely cook this again. Better than buying the store pre-made packages, and I will always have the ingredients on hand as you don't need heavy cream.

Unfortunately I am a chef by previous experience, I found that to make the recipe featured even lighter not to use the "roux" based method using the flour but to use an alternative like creme fraiche which works very well. As for children.well none of mine ever liked brocolli, they don't know just what they are missing.Easiness I should give it a 5 though I am a chef and after any prep, everything is just so "easy"! All in all, very tasty and quite experimental. More recipes pleas Dorothy, BF

I made this recipe last night, but used goat cheese instead of parmesan, and added prosciutto, sweet peas, and green onion. Delicious!

I was looking for a long time for an Alfredo sauce that tasted like the one they use in the Olive Garden. Not only does this one taste just like it, it is also a light version. The best of both worlds! The only thing I did different was that I added more parmesan to it (about 1/4 cup). Otherwise this was really really good :)

This was good. You can change some things if you want. I use 2% milk not skim milk. If something is not thickening you simply add more cornstarch or flour. I agree cornstarch is good because you do not have to use as much.

After making this once, my husband and I agreed to throw the recipe away. It wasn't good at all. It took FOREVER to thicken. There was too much onion flavor. I guess adding onion and taking away the fat content wasn't a good idea. I would rather haven driven 30 minutes to the Olive Garden, waited in line for 30 min. more and then again for the dinner and the drive back. At least by then I would have actually eaten something, and something that tasted good!

Very flavorful for being pretty low fat. It took alot longer than I expected but was worth the wait. I took out the brocolli and served it on the side instead to make it easier for my kids to enjoy, one loved it, the other turned away.

My husband and I really enjoyed this recipe and I will definitely be using it again. I try to fix as many low-fat, low-cholesterol meals as possible, and I knew it was a winner when he looked at me suspiciously and said "You put cream or butter into this, didn't you?" Success! I took the advice of the other reviewers and added an extra tablespoon of flour, and I also added a package of small, pre-cooked shrimp to make it more of a "main dish" meal. It was just as good reheated the next day.

This was a good light alternative to creamy, fatty alfredo sauces. I modified using canola oil instead of vegetable oil, mushroom/vegetable broth instead of chicken broth, fresh broccolli florets instead of frozen, corn starch instead of flour, sea salt instead of regular salt, and soymilk instead of skim milk. I used freshly grated parmesan cheese and and vegetable mix fettucine (normal, spinach, & beet). Turned out delicious!

Excellent low fat version! I used 1 1/2 cups skim milk and 1/2 cup fat-free half and half for extra richness. Fresh parmesan cheese makes all the difference!

This didn't turn out at all. It took me two hours to make the sauce over a very low heat and once I added the shredded parm cheese it curdled. I had to throw it away.

I also had to add 1 extra TBS flour and added imitation lobster and it was delicious! Though it doesn't matter if it's light when you have 3 servings!
