Lower Fat Alfredo Sauce image

While you can never call Alfredo Sauce truly low fat and guilt free, here is one that has maybe less guilt associated with it :)

Categories     Sauces

Time 25m

Yield 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 quart fat-free half-and-half
4 ounces low-fat cream cheese
1 cup light margarine
1 cup parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon garlic

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.
