Fettuccini Alfredo

Dinner, Lunch, Main Dish

Ingredients

For the pasta:

2 eggs

1 oz cream cheese

pinch of salt

pinch of garlic powder

1/8 tsp black pepper


For the sauce:

1 oz Mascarpone cheese

1 Tbsp grated parmesan cheese

1 Tbsp butter


Alternative sauce (much better)

2 oz cream cheese

2 Tbsp heavy whipping cream

1 Tbsp grated parmesan

1 Tbsp butter

Directions

For the pasta: Blend the eggs, cream cheese, salt, garlic powder, and pepper in a magic bullet or blender. Pour into a butter-greased 8 x 8 pan. Bake at 325 for 8 minutes or until just set. Remove and let cool for about 5 minutes. Using a spatula, gently release the sheet of “pasta” from the pan. Roll it up and slice with a sharp knife into 1/8 inch thick slices. Gently unroll and set aside.

For the sauce:
Combine ingrediants in a small bowl. Microwave on high for 30 seconds. Whisk. Microwave on high another 30 seconds. Whisk again until smooth (this may take a minute because the sauce will have separated – keep whisking and it will come back together!) Add the pasta to the hot sauce and toss gently. Serve immediately with more freshly ground black pepper if desired.
