This is a very easy and very yummy recipe for an Alfredo sauce.  It can be modified to use low-fat cream cheese and milk to be healthier.

• 1 Cup Milk
• 3 Tbsp Parmesan or other hard cheese (We've use mozzarella too.)

• 1/2 tsp Salt
• 1 1/2 Tbsp Parsley
• 1/2 tsp oregano

Other Notes

Fresh or dried herbs can be used.  This recipe provides plenty of sauce for a half pound of pasta which is what we use for two adults and two kids. Additions make it a more nutritionally complete meal.  We've used this recipe with chicken, canned tuna, chopped bacon, and spinach. Breadsticks make a nice addition to get all the sauce off your plate, and trust me you'll want to get all the sauce off your plate.
