How to Make Fat Free Fettuccine Alfredo

  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1 teaspoon cornstarch and 1 tablespoon skim milk until smooth.
  2. Gradually whisk in 2 cups skim milk. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly.
  3. Reduce heat to low. Add 4 ounces cream cheese, stirring continuously until melted and smooth.
  4. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. While the sauce simmers, heat 1 tablespoon cooking spray in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Sauté 8 ounces sliced mushrooms and 2 chopped scallions until tender-crisp (about 5 minutes).
  7. Cook 1 pound fettuccine according to package directions until al dente.
  8. Drain the pasta and add it to the skillet with the mushrooms and scallions.
  9. Pour the creamy Alfredo sauce over the pasta and toss to coat. Serve immediately and enjoy!
