Submitted by Sara in FL

"I love this recipe! I honestly do not remember where I got it from, but it's delicious and simple to make. It's very rich so I definitely would not recommend this as a side dish. It's great all by itself with some garlic bread on the side."

Awesome recipe! I added some pine nuts to it that gave it a really nice additional nutty flavor and a good bit of texture to the traditional chicken "alfredo"

Okay...TO DIE FOR! I was looking for a homemade white sauce and printed this off. I added some chopped boneless skinless chicken breast at the end and it was perfection. My husband loved this! Thank you SARA!
