Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo

 

chicken fettuccine alfredoThis Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo has a creamy sauce flavored with garlic, two different chesses, onions and mushrooms. The kids are constantly asking me to make this dish. They would eat it twice a week if we let them. This is a great recipe for sneaking in some vegetables. Sometimes we add some broccoli or carrots. We call it Stealth Nutrition.

My husband is always asking me to use pepper jack cheese in this recipe but I have to keep reminding him that the kids don't like it that spicy. So, he mixes in some red pepper flakes after I have served his plate.
