Simmer, uncovered, for 3-5 minutes or until the mushrooms are tender. Add cream cheese and ham; cook and stir until cheese is melted. Add tomatoes; heat through. Remove from the heat; stir in Parmesan cheese and pepper. Rinse and drain fettuccine; top with the sauce.

DREAMY LOW-FAT FETTUCCINE ALFREDO

It's a shame that alfredo is, for most people an occasional indulgence. Now, with this recipe cutting gobs of fat and cheese, it makes a great candidate for weeknight cooking. You'll be surprised that the trick is using a butter and flour roux to provide the same mouth feel as thickened heavy cream. To help speed up this recipe, prepare the sauce while bringing the water to a boil.

Steps:

  • Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot over high heat. I sometimes use a ladle, fill each of four serving bowls with about 1/2 boiling water and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, heat the butter over medium heat until foaming. Whisk in the flour until mixture is smooth and golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the milk, half-and-half, garlic, 1/2 tsp salt, pepper and nutmeg. Bring to a simmer.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until sauce is slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Discard garlic, stir in Parmesan and remove from heat.
  • Stir pasta and remaining salt into the boiling water and cook, stirring constantly, until al dente, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water, then drain pasta.
  • Return sauce to low heat, add 1/3 cup pasta water and the cooked pasta. Toss until evenly coated. Cook until sauce has thickened slightly, about 1 minute. Add more water as needed to thin sauce to desired consistency and adjust seasonings.
  • Working quickly, empty the water from the warmed bowls and fill with pasta. Serve immediately.

Steps:

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

1 cup 1% low-fat milk (skim may be used, but creates a thinner sauce)
1 1/2 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 tablespoons flour
3 tablespoons parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1 dash pepper

DIVINELY CREAMY LOW-FAT FETTUCCINE ALFREDO

One of my favorite things to eat is fettuccine alfredo, but I don't always like all the fat associated with this dish. I found this recipe and it is really very good. Be sure to use imported Italian Parmigiano-Reggiano, which has an intense, buttery flavor that makes all the difference. If you are following Weight Watchers, this recipe has 6 points per 1 cup serving.
