This is one of the recipes I tried yesterday.

I actually used less of the milk and some chicken broth I had frozen to give it a bit extra "mmph." This is especially helpful if you're going to had chicken to the dish. The nutmeg was a nice touch I wouldn't have thought of otherwise. I added some fresh parsley I had on hand, too.

LOW FAT ALFREDO SAUCE

1 tbsp. butter (butter)
1/4 c. flour
1 tsp. salt
Pinch nutmeg
3/4 c. grated Parmesan cheese
3 c. low fat milk
1/2 tsp. pepper
Cooked fettuccine

Melt butter-butter in saucepan over medium heat. Add flour; cook, stirring, 1 minute. Whisk in milk, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Bring to a boil, whisking; reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Toss with Parmesan cheese and cooked fettuccine.
