Introduction
My Gramma Willie taught me how to make this sauce years ago. It's the only way I make Alfredo now (though I use unsweetened soy milk instead of skim milk). Serve with grilled chicken, broccoli and pasta. My Gramma Willie taught me how to make this sauce years ago.

Very easy and pretty good. Mine was a tiny bit bitter (I can't think of a better way to describe it)...I think it was the type of cream cheese I used. Good for a quick, easy dinner. I added pepper and extra fresh garlic. Would make again if I needed to use up the ingredients, like this time! - 7/24/10

Often wondered what "alfredo" is. Now I know - a cheese sauce that's not quite a properly cheesy sauce. I make a savoury white sauce. A basic white sauce, and add either mustard powder to the thickening agent, or coarse grain mustard - plus herbs & seasonings. Keep cheese as protein in other meals. - 2/2/10
