Easy Low-Fat Alfredo Sauce image

This is a very creamy sauce. As its name implies it is very easy...I love to do it with cooked shrimp and what ever fresh veggies I have and put it over noodles. You can use any meat you like. I cook the meat in a separate pan and pour the Alfredo sauce over when cooked. YUMMY!

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup butter
8 ounces cream cheese (best room temp)
2 tablespoons flour
2 cups whole milk (cream or half and half)
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
salt and pepper
1/2 cup butter (margarine just doesn't work)
8 ounces low-fat cream cheese
2 cups skim milk
4 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Melt butter over low heat (do not burn or sauce will take on nutty flavor).
  • With a whisk, mix in the cream cheese and whisk until completely combined. (At first it will seem like it won't combine, but keep stirring until it does).
  • Add milk and flour and continue to whisk.
  • Once it heats up and is smooth add parmesan cheese and salt and pepper and stir to combine.
  • Let it sit for a few minute to thicken.
  • Lower fat recipe. Follow directions above--it will be slightly thinner, but will thicken upon standing.
