Alfredo is not usually a meal that I would choose. This recipe was DELICIOUS! I agree that it does need the extra sauce.

This sauce was so good! I made a few changes and added sauteed chicken tenders and broccoli. I used fresh garlic, fatfree evaporated milk, lowfat cream cheese, fresh grated parm reggiano and penne pasta. It came out great!

Excellent. I used some fresh garlic instead of garlic powder and much less parsley because I used dried. Added some shrimp, yummy. It came out absolutely wonderful - I doubled the recipe for my family and everyone loved it - even my picky 9-year-old nephew. Yum!

This sause was awesome!!! Just as good as you would get in a restaurant. The only problem I had was the serving size. I cut it down to 4 servings for my husband and I and that was not enough sause for 2 people. Not sure what kind of servings they are talking about, but not the kind we use at my house!! I also added fresh garlic and topped it off with grilled chicken breast!

I made this recipe tonight and it was excellent! I did double to sauce and reduced the salt slightly. Also, I added frozen cooked shrimp that I sauteed in minced garlic and olive oil. I highly recommend and it has an authentic alfredo taste.

I haven't made this particular recipe, but it's a fairly basic alfredo sauce with a few additions. Having made alfredo many times & reading other reviews I had a couple comments. Many people said this recipe is too salty. I don't recall ever adding salt to alfredo before. There is already salt in the butter, so I would definitely recommend not adding extra salt or cutting it way back. If you subtract that this recipe goes well with grilled chicken, or shrimp as others have said. I like to saute some mushrooms in a little butter, garlic, & pepper and then add grilled chicken and penne pasta with the alfredo sauce. I also don't add parsley, but that's personal taste. Hope this helps!

EXCELLENT! Our favorite alfredo dish was served at Alfredo's in the Italy Pavilion at Epcot. This is very comparable to it. I only cooked 1/2 lb. of pasta, as others suggested there wasn't enough sauce. I used farfalle pasta as it was all I had on hand. I took Roxanne J.R.'s idea and added chicken that I precooked. Very good idea! Thank you Kimber for sharing!

I have made this several times. I made it as written the first time and found it was oozing butter, had too much salt, and too much pasta for the amount of sauce...3 stars. With modifications it is a very flavorful and healthier recipe. Now I use half the pasta, replace the heavy cream with whole milk, reduce the butter in half, and eliminate the salt. Usually I saute chopped onion or shrimp in a little olive oil with fresh garlic (instead of powdered garlic) and to that I add 1-2 T flour and cook for a minute or so; I add this mixture to the butter and whole milk mixture and let it thicken slightly before adding the Parmesan cheese. Add your favorite vegetables, seafood, or chicken to change it up for even more variety. Great flavor.

Great flavor! I followed others suggestions and went light on adding extra salt. Sauce is a little thin even after letting it sit. Next time might try adding a little extra Parmesan to see if it will thicken up a little more. Definitely a keeper though!

Wow! This one will have you licking your plate clean! I made it with 2 cloves of fresh garlic and freshly shredded parmesan (from a container). I have a warning, however. 1 tsp of salt will probably be way too much. I used less than half a teaspoon as well as unsalted butter and it still came out a bit salty. I suggest tasting it before you add any salt. Odds are if you use salted butter and salty parmesan, you won't have to add any salt. I may want to try thickening it a bit with cornstarch next time so that I don't have to let it cool off so much.

Delicious recipe! I used twists for my pasta in this dish and grilled some pre-marinated chicken (herb based marinade) cut it into bite sized cubes and tossed it in with the pasta and sauce. Very delicious! Could use a tad more cheese in the sauce, but that could just be my personal taste) so I just sprinkled extra Parmesan on top. Also, like other reviewers said, the sauce really does thicken up quite a bit as it starts to cool. Definitely a quick and easy dish to throw together and I will be making it again. Thanks for sharing!

I loved this! I had to make a substitute for the heavy cream (1 c. lowfat cottage cheese w/ 3 T powdered milk, blender for 5 min). Still, LOVE IT! Would be good with chicken or veggies tossed in, and with a little more sauce.

I looooved this, but if I remember next time, I will use flat leaf parsley instead of curly because the curly parsley if crispier than the other. I'd also like to try this with fresh Parmesan instead of already grated. Other than that, perfect!
