Guiltless Alfredo Sauce


Serves: 10
Total Calories: 90

Ingredients

2 cups low-fat milk
1/3 cup (3 ounce) low-fat cream cheese
2 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Directions:

1. In a blender, blend the milk, cream cheese, flour, and salt until smooth and set aside.

2. In a large, nonstick saucepan, melt butter on medium-high heat and add the garlic. Sauté the garlic for about 30 seconds, stirring constantly to prevent garlic from sticking and burning.

3. Add the milk mixture to the pan. Stir constantly for 3-4 minutes or until it just comes to a simmer. Keep stirring and let it cook for a few minutes more or until the sauce thickens, about 6-7 minutes.

4. Once the sauce has started to thicken, remove from heat. Whisk the cheese into the sauce and immediately cover the pan.

5. Allow the sauce to stand for at least 10 minutes before using. It will continue to thicken upon standing.

6. Serve immediately. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 5 days. The sauce will become very thick once refrigerated. To use it, reheat the sauce and add a little milk until the desired consistency is reached.

Best Bites say that this sauce is great drizzled over vegetables or used as dip for bread sticks.
