Our Best Bites Guiltless Alfredo Sauce

I just so happen to love Alfredo sauce!  For a while, I would make it often at home from the jar, but then I discovered how high calorie it was.  So it became a once in a while treat.  Well I discovered a great Alfredo sauce that my cousin mentioned on Facebook one day.  It is from an amazing food blog found at www.ourbestbites.com.  It is really, really good food blog!  So since I am in a recipe sharing mood this month, I have to share this recipe.  And the best thing about this one is that it is only about 100 calories per 1/4 a cup!!  Only it doesn't taste low calorie at all.  Enjoy!!  Cause we sure do!

Guiltless Alfredo Sauce

2 c. low fat milk                                        1 T. butter

1/3 c. (3 oz) low fat cream cheese             3 garlic cloves

2 T. flour                                                  1 c. grated parmesan cheese

1 t. salt

Toss the milk, cream cheese, flour, and salt in blender.  Process until smooth.  In a non-stick sauce pan, melt butter on med-high heat and add garlic.  Let the garlic sauté for about 30 seconds, you don’t want to burn it.  Then add milk mixture to the pan.  Stir constantly for about 3 or 4 minutes or until it just comes to a simmer.  Keep stirring and let it cook for a few minutes more.  It should be much thicker now.  When it’s nice and thickened remove the pan from the heat.  Add the cheese, stir it up and then cover immediately.  Let stand for at least 10 minutes before using.  It will continue to thicken upon standing.  Also if you have leftovers in the fridge, the sauce will thicken almost into a solid.  Just re-heat and add a little milk.
