New and Improved 15 Minute Alfredo

A few years back, I found this recipe, and used it as a quick stand by for when my husband was deployed (he hates all things with alfredo sauce), because fettuccine has always been a favorite of my kiddos.

15 Minute Alfredo

 8 oz package of cream cheese

1/2 cup butter

3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

1/2 cup milk

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/8 teaspoon nutmeg

1  package of fettuccine noodles, cooked

Just heat it all up in a small saucepan, stirring often, and pour over noodles.

Since then my son has taken over cooking it, and we have it for lunch sometimes instead since {Praise the Lord} Daddy is home every night for dinner!
This week, he asked if he could makes some changes to it, since it is a little thick, and he wanted to make it a little better. I was all for it.
Sohe made some changes (and I made sure he wrote down everything he did) and it turned out better than ever!
