Quite awhile ago I tried another alfredo sauce recipe and wasn't pleased with the results. I'm happy to say that this one is very easy to make and seems almost fool-proof. It even reheats well in the microwave. I think this would be wonderful with some sauteed mushrooms in it. I've included the total carb count in case you'd like to use this for a recipe that serves more or less than six.

UPDATE: After refrigerating, the sauce will become extremely thick. Don't be tempted to thin it down. After reheating in the microwave, it will be back to a nice consistency.
