Normally I make my own Alfredo sauce when I make this recipe but lately I haven't had much time. It tastes fine with store bought stuff.

I came up with this version of Alfredo sauce using milk thickened with a bit of flour rather than using heavy cream and I'm pleased with the result. Although it still has 1/2 cup of butter, I say all in moderation!! The family loved it! Bridget -
