Chicken Alfredo |
Traditionally made with butter, lots of Parmesan,
heavy cream and several grindings of fresh black pepper, pasta
Alfredo is traditionally loaded with calories! But this version
uses nonfat sour cream and a handful of Parmesan to get the
same rich and flavorful sauce. It's guiltlessly sinful! |
