Fettuccine Alfredo

I had been craving some Fettuccine Alfredo, but I knew the stuff in the jar just wouldn't cut it. I decided to make my own sauce, using cream cheese! I tossed it with mushrooms, broccoli, and grilled chicken. Yum! 

Alfredo Sauce Recipe: 

Minced garlic (to taste) 

1/4 cup butter

1/4 cup olive oil 

8 oz. low-fat cream cheese

2 cups milk 

1/3 cup of Parmesan cheese

Sauté the garlic in the butter in a medium saucepan on medium heat. When butter melts, add the olive oil. Stir with whisk. Add the cream cheese, melt completely until there are no lumps. Slowly whisk in the milk. Add the Parmesan cheese. Continue stirring until reached desired consistency. Note that it will get thicker as it cooks. If it gets too thick, add some milk. 

Here's the results!
