Lighter Alfredo Sauce
"This actually turned out very good. I served it with whole wheat pasta, scallops, peas and mushrooms all mixed together. Also, I LOVE garlic, so I added a lot and I didnt add any salt while cooking, so adjust it to your tastes."

I served this over fettucine pasta and it was very good, the sauce was nice and garlicy (we love garlic too) but I felt that there wasn't quite enough for two people... or maybe my man just eats a lot lol. Next time I might double the recipe just to be safe. Thanks! -
A very nice alfredo sauce. This thickened up beautifully. I switched the order of steps 2 & 3, stirring the flour into the oil before adding the milk.I used olive oil rather than butter and fat free evaporated milk. It was great on Angel Hair Pasta and Crab with Alfredo Sauce #37225.
