Steps:
- Make the sauce: Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and lemon zest and cook until the garlic is slightly soft, about 1 minute. Add in the flour and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, 1 minute. Whisk in the milk and 3/4 teaspoon salt and cook, whisking constantly, until just thickened, about 3 minutes. Add the Neufchâtel and parmesan cheese; whisk until melted, about 1 minute. Stir in the chopped parsley.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine and cook until al dente, 2 to 3 minutes. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain the pasta and return to the pot. Add the sauce and 1/2 cup of the reserved cooking water to the pasta and gently toss to combine, adding more cooking water as needed to loosen. Season with salt. Divide among bowls and top with parmesan and pepper.

LOW CALORIE ALFREDO SAUCE
Just a remake of one that is already on here... Excellent restaurant quality recipe, just a little less calories and fat. Seems like a lot of calories and fat, but it is a quarter of both the original and tastes the same. Enjoy! PS I like to add Cajun seasoning to make it spicy!

Steps:
- Melt the half and half, cream cheese and margarine together in a sauce pan.
- When nice and bubbly hot slowly add the parmesan cheese.
- Next add the garlic.
- Simmer on low for about 20 minutes.
- **Note, this sauce will separate. It's ok, when mixed with your pasta it will taste great and not be separated. I think it has something to do with the low fat oils.
