Smarter Fettuccine Alfredo
For higher fiber content try using whole wheat fettuccine. Garlic lovers should add 1/8 tsp. garlic powder. This fettuccine alfredo is 'smarter' because chicken broth, flour and Philly Light Cream Cheese replace the butter and heavy cream used in the traditional recipe. The amount of Grated Parmesan Cheese is also decreased. By making these changes, you'll save 300 calories and 34 grams of fat per serving compared to a traditional recipe.
1/2 lb.
fettuccine, uncooked
1-1/4 cups
fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth
4 tsp.
flour
1/3 cup
PHILADELPHIA Light Cream Cheese Spread
3 Tbsp.
KRAFT 100% Grated Parmesan Cheese, divided
1/4 tsp.
ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp.
pepper
2 Tbsp.
chopped fresh parsley
COOK pasta as directed on package.
MEANWHILE, mix broth and flour in medium saucepan with wire whisk. Add cream cheese spread, 2 Tbsp. of the Parmesan cheese, the nutmeg and pepper; cook 2 min. or until mixture comes to boil and thickens, stirring constantly.
DRAIN pasta; place in large bowl. Add sauce; toss to coat. Sprinkle with remaining 1 Tbsp. Parmesan cheese and the parsley.
