I really liked this for a quick weeknight dinner. I sauteed the chicken strips in olive oil and garlic. Did everything else in the recipe the same. It would be excellent with mushrooms in the sauce too. I will make this again. I was craving cream sauce and this is a lower fat sauce. I had Penne pasta which held the sauce nicely too.

This worked well for a lower-fat alfredo sauce. I made the sauce ahead of time and refrigerated it for a few hours. I was definitely heavy-handed with the parmesan cheese.

I really wanted to like this. Really. It's so healthy plus so easy...how can you go wrong!? Taste, unfortunately. It just tasted...sour. Even adding more garlic power and onion as others recommended for flavor..it was just off. I won't be making this again.

I sauteed a whole onion with some minced garlic in butter, then gently stirred in the pureed ingredients. I used whole wheat pasta and fresh grated parmesan. I also sprinkled a little fresh parm over the top when serving. My husband and oldest abhor cottage cheese but inhaled this. The rest of us enjoyed this as well.

I have made this recipe many times since discovering it here on Allrecipes last year. We LOVE it. It's a very healthy alternative to a heavy alfredo sauce dish. It doesn't taste like a full fat recipe, so don't expect that. But if you are used to eating lighter, I bet you will enjoy this simple recipe. I do add more seasoning...like many others mentioned, just play around with the recipe with spices you like.

This is a good recipe for being "quick and easy". You will have to season it to your own taste, as it is kind of bland if you do not deviate from the recipe posted. Just play around with it, you will get it. I also added some Parsley for looks. I will upload a picture soon.

I added some broccoli and used penne pasta. I didn't have a problem with the sauce being too thin like some other reviewers. I just wasn't crazy about the taste-- just a little strange. My husband said he thought it was OK, but didn't go back for seconds or eat the leftovers...

I had some cooked chicken breasts and cottage cheese, but not much else--so this recipe let me put dinner on the table. Everyone liked it pretty well. When I first added in the pasta, it was runny, but by the end of dinner, the leftovers had thickened nicely. Next time, we will leave a little time for it to thicken before eating. As I said, I didn't have much--I substituted dried milk, 3 T. dried minced onions, 1 tsp garlic salt, and elbow macaroni. It looked kind of bland, so I added about 1 T. dried parsley leaves. Topped with fresh grated parmesan. Needed a little more salt. It was pretty good.

Tasted really good (I omitted the salt and added some Italian seasoning) but it was very runny. Maybe I did something wrong? Loved that it felt somewhat healthy!

I make this sauce often, and have enjoyed it from the beginning. It goes without saying that it's delicious on any type of pasta, and is a much healthier alternative than creamier sauces.

Great recipe! Very fast and simple to make. My husband and I loved it. The only things I did differenly was add a garlic clove in place of garlic powder, as well as a few Italian spices to give it more flavor.

This was pretty good and pretty simple. I started it around 5:45 and was serving dinner at 7:00. I even had to broil the chicken. I definately recommend adding more garlic and onion, otherwise, it might be kinda' bland. My family ate it just fine and did't complain. I even stirred some steamed broccoli in with it.

Very good, easy recipe! Not my favorite, but I'm not a fan of alfredo, however my husband and 1 year old LOVED it. I was able to work this recipe into our Weight Watchers meal plan due to the light sauce. Definately will make this one again. Easy and fast!

Okay flavor, a nice tang, but i had texture issues (I don't have a food processor, so I used my immersion blender), and not "alfredo-y" enough. I tossed in a jar of store-bought alfredo sauce (Bertolli's), and it was great. A less-guilty but not guilt-free sauce. P.S. - I cooked three cubed chicken breasts in two tbs butter and two cloves chopped garlic (plus salt and pepper), then stirred into the sauce w/ some steamed brocolli. Result was YUM!

I was not really impressed with this recipe. It had a sweet flavor to it and did not taste at all like alfredo. I added a ton more Parmesan, some garlic powder, and tossed in a packet of Knorr pesto mix. After my additions it was good, but still not worth the effort.

This recipe tastes OK, but is very easy and is healthiest white sauce I have found. I will make it again. If you are looking for a very creamy, traditional alfredo sauce then find a recipe with cream because you won't be happy with this low-cal substitute.
