Fettuccine Alfredo
This recipe came by way of Courtney Ricker Dale and Daryn Ricker (my niece & nephew), as well as from Aunt Lynne Young.
Ingredients - Serves 2
1 pkg. fettuccine noodles
2/3 cup half and half or sour cream
1 egg yolk, slightly beaten
1/2 c Parmesan cheese, grated
1/4 stick butter
You can add a little minced garlic, if you wish!

Steps
- Cook noodles according to directions on package. While noodles are cooking, beat egg yolk and add to cream. Melt butter.
- Drain noodles well and place on platter or large bowl. Pour egg mixture, melted butter, and about half of the Parmesan cheese over the noodles.
- Toss all with fork and spoon until well-blended. Add the rest of the cheese a little at a time. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve while hot!
Tips: You can substitute low fat plain yogurt for the cream. I also like to add bite-sized pieces of precooked chicken breast and some spinach leaves to make it a complete meal.
