This is one of our family favorites! Although it's pretty low in calories and fat (for fettuccine alfredo), it has plenty of flavor. This looks really good, too, so we make it sometimes when company comes. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do!Submitted by: MOPSMOM3

This was a delicious change of pace. I used 3/4 cup of skim milk and omitted the water. I also cooked up some tricolour couscous
about 1/2 cup cooked and place that below the chicken and spinach sauce. Did not matter how runny or thin...it was a delicious change of pace. i used LITE cream cheese - 12/23/11
