FETTUCCINE ALFREDO image

A nice creamy alfredo sauce that is easy to through together...much better than a bag of mix made with all powdered ingredients right? This recipe is VERY versatile...you can add some fresh garlic or garlic powder, change the cheeses or do a blend of parmesan,romano and asiago, and add a little cornstarch or flour if you want it...
