"A different take on fettucine alfredo, using green spinach noodles. This is a rich, decadent treat. I usually just serve a salad with this. Make this right before serving, if it's allowed to sit, it becomes gummy"

Used leeks instead of green onion and omitted the nutmeg. Simple and satisfying.

I the sauce was great, but I guess we are not a fan of the fettuccine verde noodles. But thank you for sharing. :) Always a pleasure to try new things.
