It was below my expectations. It tasted somewhat....sugary. To make it somewhat pleasant I added oregano, A LOT of pepper, and garlic salt. I could still taste the sugarnness. I'm not hard to please and don't mean to be unkind, but this recipe wasn't that good.

Sorry, I just didn't like this recipe. I ended up throwing it away. I know it is because it is made with fat-free cream cheese, which I don't care for anyway but I thought it might be better in the sauce. It may be better with light cream cheese but I think I'll just give up the fettucine for awhile...

This such a great recipe.Fettuccini Alfredo is one of our favourite meals but I haven't made it years because of all that butter.I put the freshly grated Parmesan and the pepper mill on the table and it was like at the restaurant except better.Thanks for posting.

I had high hopes, but retained too much of the fat free cream cheese taste for me and my family to enjoy, and it languished in the fridge. So, we tried it again and added an extra tsp of cornstarch and 1/4 c. parmesan cheese instead of the cream cheese... slightly less healthy but also less artificial, and tasted tons better.
