Fettuccine Alfredo -Low Fat and Healthy! image

I got this recipe from a container of organic yogurt. It looked really good. I love alfredo sauce, but it's so high in calories and fat. This looks like a possible alternative. I haven't tried it - if you try it, please review it!

Time 15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 teaspoons salt
fettuccine or spaghetti
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 cup low-fat milk
1 cup plain yogurt
salt & pepper

Steps:

  • Cook pasta, drain, set aside.
  • Cook olive oil and garlic in a skillet until browned.
  • Add pasta to skillet, and add 1/2 cup cheese. Mix together.
  • Add milk, stir, cook on medium heat for 2 minutes or so.
  • Mix yogurt with 1/2 cup of pasta in a separate bowl, to prevent curdling.
  • Return yogurt and pasta to pan, mix well.
  • Remove from heat, add remainder of cheese, and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cover and let stand for 12-15 minutes, so the pasta can absorb all the liquid.
