Low Fat Shrimp Fettuccini Alfredo
Restaurant Alfredo sauce is delicious, but there’s so much extra and unnecessary fat. This recipe keeps the fat where you need it – in the parmesan cheese, but replaces butter with olive oil and heavy cream with skim milk. My husband was shocked that I was still able to get the flavor and richness in […]
