Quick and Easy Alfredo Sauce

Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons butter
• 1 (8 ounce) package low fat cream cheese
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 2 cups milk
• 6 ounces grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 cup mozzarella cheese

Directions

1. Melt butter in a medium, non-stick saucepan over medium heat. Add cream cheese and garlic powder, stirring with wire whisk until smooth. Add milk, a little at a time, whisking to smooth out lumps. Stir in Parmesan, Mozzarella and pepper. Remove from heat when sauce reaches desired consistency. Sauce will thicken rapidly, thin with milk if cooked too long. Toss with hot pasta to serve.

* This tastes great served over penne with crispy Cajun chicken strips. I add sliced mushrooms to my sauce and serve it over diced mushrooms and black olives as well. My family loves this!
