I thougth this was a little greasy and heavy. The ingredients were right, but I changed it to make it more figure friendly. The first batch I made according to the recipe, it was greasy and kept separating. The second batch was much better, and lower fat and calories too! For the second batch I used half the butter and a light cream cheese. I melted them in a sauce pan and then added flour to make a roux. I allowed that to cook for a few minutes to eliminate the floury taste. Then, I added skim, yes skim!, milk and parmesan and garlic. Seriously, this version went over better with the fam than the first! (And I'll feel better serving them this alfredo more often!)

this recipe was really good, but it didn't taste like alfredo until I whisked in a handful of grated parmesan- with the parmesan it was excellent!

I have to agree with one of the reviewers that this recipe came in with too much cream cheese coming through in the flavor. I did try some different amounts of the spices. It will need some time to sit in order to thicken properly.

My husband loves this dish! Everytime I make it for him, he can't stop eating it. He always says, kiddingly, "You better not make this again." Then I know he really loves it.

Sorry but nobody in my family enjoyed this. Way to "cream cheesy". I even took others advice and used fresh garlic and 1/2 cup parmesan.

I love this creamy version of the alfredo sauce. Very creamy the flavors are great but would have loved a little more garlic flavor. Just add minced garlic and it's even better.

uhm~??~ regarding the last comment posted... this must be Fazzoli's recipe. My Husband is a Director of Operations for the O.G. restaurants and I can assure you although this is a good recipe.. this is not there's. It's missing a few very important ingredients like for starters PARMESAN CHEESE and the OG's would be hard to 'exactly' duplicate as they have a few secret ingredients (sorry) .. and no cream cheese @ all... I was looking for a lighter sauce that is not as heavy .. and this was good but I did add Parmesan and no garlic 'salt'.. just a lot of fresh garlic and it was good. .. and quick.. thnks!

If you leave out the lemon pepper it's not bad. You will need to use more liquid to thin the sauce, otherwise it's tooo thick.

It did not taste like alfredo sauce when it was done, but whatever it was tasted delicious. I will be making this again very soon!

After a few bites the sauce was sickly sweet. Adding parm cheese cuts the sweetness down and would turn this into a 5 star success. The cream cheese gives a nice thick texture and richness. Add more cream if it becomes too thick for your personal preference. When reheating some milk or cream really re-smoothes the sauce evenly over the pasta. This recipe is a keeper for a rich sauce without the flour texture of roux based recipes.

This was very good with a few changes. Add 3 cloves fresh garlic instead of garlic salt, 1/2 C. of fresh grated Parmesan, and 1 T. of dried basil. I also used 6 T. of butter instead of 8, still was great.

I thought this was way too sweet tasting. I put less than half of the cream cheese. Used whipping cream. Added fresh garlic and onions. Added parsley. I did not have any parm to put in it, so that might have helped. Now, after all of the negativity, my kids loved it. Go figure.

I use this recipe and found very fast and easy. I did add a few of my own touches such as sauted garlic and onions; parmesan cheese and real lemon zest and fresh ground pepper and touch of white wine. The next time I will try fresh ground nutmeg. I will never by store bought again. This also works with 2% Milk just added a little more butter and cream cheese.
