Lumpy Alfredo Sauce?

For smooth Alfredo sauce, prepare it just before serving. Add the grated cheese slowly over low heat just until melted. Immediately remove from the heat.

This was very good I added onions and mushrooms plus a little Italian seasoning I would make this again.

Very good, and easy to make. I only gave it 4 stars because it really needed salt! I added about 1/8 tsp.

I'm surprised to see there was a negative comment on this recipe, I loved it! I used minced garlic instead of the powder, which worked out well. Give it a try and see for yourself!

After making this recipe, I would recomend just buying a box of Pasta Roni and adding chicken to it. It would take less time and tastes better than this recipe.
