Alfredo!!!!

No. That's not the name Jet and Stephen have chosen for their baby. I'm just trying out this blog thing and what better way than with a recipe (since we are all foodies in this family). We had this as part of our spaghetti day on Saturday, 2/9/08.

Better Than Olive Garden Alfredo Sauce

1/2 cup butter
2 cups heavy cream
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 t white pepper
1/2 c grated or shredded parmesan
3/4 cup shredded mozarella

Melt butter in saucepan; add cream, pepper, garlic and parmesan. Bring to a simmer and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Add Mozarella and stir often. That's it! How much easier could it get.

I mixed in a few shakes of ground nutmeg at the end and it was a nice improvement. One word of advice..... don't make more than what you can use right away. The leftover sauce is a bit on the weird side. I doubled the recipe and it was a lot of sauce. Another helpful hint is to overcook some garlic bread (oops) and use the sauce to dip it in!

That is too funny! Zack wanted me to get this from you and I completely forgot to ask.
