This sauce is lower in fat than traditional Alfredo Sauce but full of flavour. Great as a side with grilled chicken or double it for a meal with meat filled pasta.

SERVES 4 , 4 sides
- 1 cup 1% low-fat milk (skim may be used, but creates a thinner sauce)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons butter
- 1 1/2 tablespoons flour
- 3 tablespoons parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 dash pepper
- The key here is patience, add all ingredients gradually!
- Melt butter in sauce pan on stove top with medium heat.
- Gradually whisk in flour.
- This will create a yellow paste.
- Gradually add milk, whisking until incorporated and no lumps are present.
- Continue to whisk until hot.
- Usually 3-5 minutes.
- The longer you cook the base (without the cheese) the thicker the sauce will be.
- Add parmesan slowly, again whisking until incorporated.
- Add crushed garlic and pepper.
- Cook for 2 minutes or until cheese is melted.
- Remove from heat.
