Okay so last night I made Alfredo Sauce…
But I made it a little different last night…low fat. And it still tasted very good. 
Here is the original recipe:
1 pint of Heavy Cream
1 stick of butter
2 tbsp. Cream cheese
½ - ¾ cup Parmesan cheese
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. basil
Here is my revised version:
1 pint of fat free half & half
2 tbsp. Fleishman Butter that does not have trans fat and uses olive oil
3 tbsp. fat free cream cheese
½ - ¾ cup Parmesan cheese
1 tsp. basil
And I always add more garlic but I never measure
In a saucepan combine, half & half, butter, and cream cheese.  Simmer this until it is all melted and mixed well.  Add Parmesan cheese, basil and garlic powder.  Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes on low.  
I then add cooked chopped chicken and serve over pasta.  We had whole-wheat pasta and it was yummy!
