  1. This is terrific! I added thinly sliced sun dried tomatoes along with the onions, etc. and fresh basil chiffonade at the end. Otherwise followed it exactly. Just delish! Thank you Kitten!
     
  2. Great recipe. I doubled the sauce and added some basil for color. Very good. Next time I will add some sun dried tomatoes and broc. Thanks Kittencal for another fantastic recipe.
     
  3. Great! My daugher loves alfredo and we're staying away from the ready made sauces for sodium reasons so this recipe fit the bill. It was easy enough for my husband to make all on his own. He added less cayenne pepper but I think it needed to be even less for the kids taste. I also like the idea of adding broccoli so may try that too. Great to find rich tasty sauces that are low fat!!!! Keep em coming.
     
  4. I found this recipe because I had a jar of alfredo sauce but didn't want to just pour it over noodles and chicken. I left the cayenne out for my kids sake, but instead I used about 1/8 tsp. nutmeg since I always see fancy chefs grating it on alfredo. I also used a full onion and served it with broccoli. This is very good! It will become a staple for our family! Thank you!
     
  5. Awesome & Delicious!! Substituted whipping cream & milk for half & half. Very easy to make & quick to put on the table. Thanks~~!!
