Alfredo Sauce

I'm so excited!! This is the first time I have ever blogged in my life! So, please be patient with me as I'm not sure what I am doing. I got this amazing recipe from my friend, Janice. Everything she makes is delicious!! She is definitely my go to person when I need a recipe or an idea for a recipe. This sauce is so good and very easy to make. It is wonderful over pasta or over meatballs for an appetizer.

ALFREDO SAUCE

1 cube butter (please use the real stuff)
2 cups milk
2 8 oz packages cream cheese
2 tsp basil - or to taste (basil has such a strong taste, that I had a little at first)
2 tsp salt
1 tsp oregano
2 tsp garlic powder (if you use garlic salt, do not add the salt)
2 tsp sugar (I know, I know - but trust me on this)
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup vinegar or apple juice - vinegar makes it a little more tangy

Combine all ingredients together and heat to almost a boil - it's never a good idea to boil milk. Make sure to stir until all the cream cheese has melted. If you feel the sauce is too thick, add a little more milk.

I have served this over pasta with grilled chicken added on top and an extra sprinkle of Parmesan cheese. Yummy!

Fettuccine Alfredo

From the kitchen of Steven Haws

1 lb fettuccine, cooked al dente

3 Tbs butter

1/4 tsp pepper

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 C grated parmesean chees (alhtough I use the stuff in the bag)

1 pint heavy cream

1 1/2 tsp salt

1/8 tsp oregano

4 slices (about 1/2-3/4 C shredded) mozzerella cheese

Cook noodles. (I usually boil the water and then put the noodles in when I put in the mozzarella) Place cream and butter in large heavy pot. Add salt, pepper, oregano and garlic. Cook for 5 min. Add mozzarella and simmer for 10 minutes over low heat. Stir in noodles and mix well with grade cheese.
