Pasta Alfredo

Cream, Parmesan, and bacon—no wonder pasta Alfredo is such a flavorful dish. But when a serving is full of fat and calories, the classic recipe isn't exactly something that you can enjoy too often. Ours is a lighter version that features fat-free vegetable broth, fat-free evaporated milk, and cornstarch to help thicken up the sauce instead of full-fat, heavy cream. We do keep the bacon and grated Parmesan cheese to stay in the Alfredo spirit, but you can omit the bacon entirely if you'd like to help keep it a little lighter. Serving with a large, fresh garden salad alongside helps balance out the hearty, delicious pasta sauce.
