Fettuccine Alfredo
Megha Patel
Sometimes I lie awake in bed, dreaming about creamy, saucy, goodness… aka FETTUCCINE ALFREDO!! I don’t know what it is about Alfredo sauce, and I’m sure the Italians hate us for this, but it’s just so dang good! I could honestly drink a bucket of this sauce LOL. In general, Fettuccine Alfredo is super easy to make, with minimal ingredients. Over the years I have seen so many recipes, but mine is set apart because of 1 lovely addition 😉
Key to the Best Sauce
I think heavy cream is the way to go for a THICK, luscious, and creamy sauce. I, personally, do not use heavy cream on a regular basis, so when I’m indulging, I don’t mind it for this recipe whatsoever! If you would like to make this a little lighter, you can do equal parts of heavy cream and half & half, or half & half and milk. This is truly your preference, but heavy cream all the way is mine! And for the highlight of this recipe, you MUST use the Boursin Cheese Garlic & Fine Herbs block! It adds more flavor and it’s just BOMB.
Serving Size + Additions
If you are eating this as a main course, I would suggest using this recipe for 6 people. If you are eating this as a side to your protein, veggies, or some good old garlic bread, this can feed up to 8! Since I don’t eat meat, I usually love to throw in steamed broccoli, or even a BUNCH of spinach to get in my greens! The options are unlimited, but once you have the basis done, you can add anything you want 🙂 P.S. this is probably the first recipe of mine that you don’t see any spice in LOL.
For all of my Pasta Fanatics
If you’ve been following me for a while, you know that pasta is usually my go-to meal. It’s such a quick fix, and the options are UNLIMITED. If you want to try out some of my other pasta recipes, check out my Fusilli with a White Cheddar Habanero Lime Sauce, or my Mushroom & Zucchini Stuffed Shells. Both of these recipes are super creamy and will satisfy those carby cravings!
