    Freakin' Awesome!!! Rich and creamy, not too terribly difficult to make. I'd recommend adding some finely chopped green onion/chives or some coarsely chopped parsley to add color.

    I added a cup of frozen peas for color and it was great. I also used the frozen chicken and cooked them in the toaster oven then just cut up and added to the sauce when it was done= super easy and super good.

    I like the peas idea. Great recipe! I never thought I could make alfredo sauce, but this was super simple.

    This was good and I'm not a big Alfredo eater. My husband liked it. I felt it had a little too much cheese.

    This recipe tasted fantastic and the kids loved it. The high fat content is the only thing that kept it from getting five stars. I might trying using lighter ingredients and see if it still tastes as good (or somewhat close).

    @Aaron, Alfredo sauce with fettuccini is one of my favorites! Here's my super simple recipe. Ingredients: 18 ounces fresh fettuccine (I like to make my own, but the fresh store bought is great and a real time saver), 2 1/2 cups heavy cream, 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice, 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, 2 cups grated Parmesan, 2 teaspoons grated lemon zest, Pinch freshly grated nutmeg, Salt and freshly ground white pepper, to taste. Directions: Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes for fresh pasta. Drain. Stir 2 cups of the cream and the lemon juice in a heavy large skillet to blend. Add the butter and cook over medium heat just until the butter melts, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook another 45 seconds but do not brown the butter. Remove from the heat. Add the pasta and toss. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of cream, and Parmesan to the cream sauce in the skillet. Add the lemon zest, nutmeg, salt, and white pepper. Toss the pasta mixture over low heat until the sauce thickens slightly, about 1 minute. Be careful when adding salt as Parmesan cheese can be very salty!

    Came out amazing although i failed to realise the fine print that i should go with the quanity in the ingredients and not the step by step instructions. However, that was a bust on my end and it only caused me to use more butter which didnt alter the taste... highly recommend!!!

    This recipe makes A LOT of sauce! My husband and I will be eating this again (and again) this week. It's a good thing we really liked how it turned out. This wasn't as quick of a recipe as it claims to be, but it still wasn't difficult, either. Nice change in my usual line up.
