LOWER FAT ALFREDO SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt the half and half, cream cheese and margarine together in a sauce pan.
• When nice and bubbly hot slowly add the parmesan cheese.
• Next add the garlic.
• Simmer on low for about 20 minutes.
• **Note, this sauce will separate. It's ok, when mixed with your pasta it will taste great and not be separated. I think it has something to do with the low fat oils.
