Yes, Virginia, there really was an Alfredo. Frankly, we think he’d love our version of his pasta dish. Like his, ours is simple yet spectacular.

I like the flavor of the sauce on the pasta, however, the sauce is a little runny. I think maybe next time, I will cut back on the amount of milk in the recipe.

This alfredo sauce is washy and not tasty. The nutmeg is awful and doesn't fit to the other ingredients. I suggest using whipping cream instead of milk, mozarella and parmesan cheese instead of philadelphia.

Just made this recipe and I LOVED it! It's great for when I don't have a lot of ingredients at home and I want pasta with something different than tomato sauce!

This had a great flavor but we didn't like the "grainy" texture left by the Kraft Grated Parmesan. I might have to splurge next time & buy "real" Parmesan cheese. Hopefully it will melt a little smoother.

This is absolutely one of our FAVORITE recipes from Kraft. It's our go-to sauce when we want an easy, but nice dinner as a family. We love to add chopped bacon and peas and will often serve it over tortellini. Don't forget the nutmeg...it MAKES the dish!

This was AMAZING!!! I had been looking for an alfredo recipe for so long, my kids would eat ONLY Olive Garden fettucine alfredo, for the first time they liked one made by me. I just doubled the recipe, substituted the Philadelphia Cream cheese with 1/3rd less fat Philadelphia Cream cheese, 1 cup milk with hald cup full cream milk and 1/2 cup fat free half and half, and added freshly sauteed garlic, it was wonderful. Will definitely make it again!

I made this recipe and it was so delicious. I did make one change though. I actually doubled the recipe because i use a whole box of fettuccini and then I doubled the cream cheese again because the sauce was kind of thin. Turned out wonderful.

I have made this recipe quite a few times and we absolutely love it! I add chopped baby portabella mushrooms and shredded chicken. I also double (sometimes tripple) the recipe. I do add a touch of flour to thicken it just a tad, then add my noodles. It has been a success everytime and I highly recommend it!!
