    This was quick and easy. Nice to have to fresh light sauce compared to the 'heavier' jar variety. - 6/28/12

    Although I don't eat a lot of alfredo sauce, I am a food snob and thought this was great and very easy! It was easy to find all the ingredients in my kitchen. I used 3-cheese blend and the chicken broth, and skipped out on the parsley, mushrooms, and basil (only because of my kids) and it was yummy! - 11/4/11
