Reduced Fat Alfredo Sauce

Reduced Fat Alfredo Sauce

INGREDIENTS

• 1  cup 1% low-fat milk 
• 1 1/2 tablespoons butter
• 1 1/2 tablespoons flour
• 3  tablespoons Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1  dash pepper

DIRECTIONS:

1. Melt butter in sauce pan on stove top with medium heat.
2. Gradually whisk in flour. This will create a yellow paste.
3. Gradually add milk, whisking until incorporated and no lumps are present.
4. Continue to whisk until hot. Usually 3-5 minutes. The longer you cook the base (without the cheese) the thicker the sauce will be.
5. Add Parmesan slowly, again whisking until incorporated.
6. Add crushed garlic and pepper.
7. Cook for 2 minutes or until cheese is melted.
8. Remove from heat.

About 1/4 of a cup of this sauce is 91 calories, and if you’re like me and don’t like your pasta to be overly drenched in sauce, this recipe is perfect.
