Fettuccine Alfredo
This tastes amazing when served immediately. The kids loved and the clean up was WAY easier than a red sauce. How does the Baby get pasta sauce IN HIS EARS I’ll never know…
ingredients:
16 ounces fettuccine
1 cup heavy cream
3 Tablespoons lemon juice
4 Tablespoons butter
zest of half a lemon
1 cup parmesan cheese
salt
pepper
In a large pot boil water and add the fettuccine. Cook about 10-12 minutes, then drain. DO NOT RINSE.
In a large skillet stir the cream together with the lemon juice. Add the butter and melt over medium high heat. Once the butter melts, take the pan off the heat. Stir in the lemon zest.
To the mixture add the drained pasta and the parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper.
Turn the pan onto low heat and stir until the sauce thickens and comes together. Add more salt and pepper if you like.
That easy? Dangit. Another one to save for the after-Lent meals.
I made this on Sunday night and my husband loved it. it was really easy!! I paired it with a green salad and it was perfect.
I know this is probably a dumb question, but is heavy cream the same as “heavy whipping cream”? I don’t see plain “heavy cream” at any of our grocery stores. If it is different, could I use heavy whipping cream or half and half instead? ty

I use heavy whipping cream, no problem!
