I did not care for this at all the sauce was too thick with 8 ounces of the cream cheese. It did not reheat well for me either.

Oh. My. Gosh. What a sinfully wonderful dinner!! I followed the recipe exactly. However, I also peeled some shrimp, sprinkled them with Creole seasoning and sauteed in butter with garlic cloves until done -- then tossed the shrimp with the Fettucine Alfredo. At the risk of repeating myself.... Oh. My. Gosh!!!
