Julie's Fettuccine Alfredo....

I used this recipe as a base to make Fettuccine Alfredo the other night and made some adjustments. This is what I came up with. Charlie said it was so good that I had to share it so here it is:

1/2 cup butter

1 & 1/2 cups heavy cream (I used half and half; you could also use reg.milk)

1/2 teaspoon minced garlic (or you can use 1/4 tsp. garlic powder)

1/8 teaspoon pepper

1/4 tsp. salt

3/4 cup fresh grated Romano, Asiago, Parmesan blend cheeses (can also use just romano or just parmesan)

1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg

8 ounces fettuccine noodles

Start pasta water to boiling. Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain when done; keep warm. Meanwhile, melt butter with garlic. Add cream and pepper and salt; stir and simmer for about 10 minutes. Stir in cheese. Add nutmeg. Toss cooked noodles with sauce, serve with bread and salad and your choice of wine or sweet tea! :)

And, the best part, HELLO, this is CHEAP!!! :)

Ciao...
