Fettuccine Alfredo
One of my all time favorite dishes is Fettuccine Alfredo at the Olive Garden restaurant. I wanted to find a recipe for it that I could make at home. This is the closest thing I have found.
The recipe was on a local television show, Good Things Utah, a couple of years ago. I adapted the recipe slightly to make the sauce closer to what I wanted. I prefer to add some mushroom sautéed in butter, however, no one else in my family likes mushrooms. Sometimes, I add mushrooms to my portion only.
You could also add chicken to this also. I never have, because I figure I’m blowing my calories for the day already without the addition of the chicken.

Hey Laura!
I just wanted to leave note telling you how much I LOVE your blog! I always come here FIRST when I need a recipe, idea or inspiration. I need to add to a small amount of alfredo mix I had — and voila! Love your blog — keep up the awesome work!
Oh wow Laura you recipe looks so good. I tried my hand at one last week and i did not like how the sauce turned out. It was a bit thick for me I think i might try your recipe. We add sauted chicken on ours its my dd’s favorite.
