If you leave it to sit after cooking for about 1-2 minutes, the sauce should thicken.

Otherwise, check how much liquid you're putting into it.

BTW, I think Alfredo is meant to be a combination of parmesan and another cheese (probably cheddar). Hmmm, powdered cheese?

Im a fan of everyting Pasta. I love Italian food, so that probably explains it.

I knew a girl who would cook up the pasta alfredo packet, then use it to fill jaffles - talk about carbohydrates!

This thread probably belongs in Geek Food though.

I wouldn't take those Continental jobs as any kind of refernce on what Alfredo is MEANT to taste like

I must admit I eat a heap of those things though, I've found they turn out better if you give them a little extra butter, a little less water, a little more milk, and cook them for a little longer. The stirring pattern I use is three minutes, stir, five minutes, stir, 3 minutes, stir. Works well

For a real easy meal which i think its pretty filling, buy some chicken fillets (how many for how many people you're feeding... ie 3) and cut them into strips. Grab a family pack of the alfredo, cook that and the chicken (seperatly first) then mix them together in one big bowl and serve your portions. Yummy!

i agree that alfredo is yummy. but i am watching my fat content so i usually add just a smidge of marg and add more water and less milk. just cook ot a bit longer so that the water evaporates away. i still rate it!

Need the calcium in milk to help build strong bones don't want my foundation collapsing while weight lifting, also need protein. So i'm all for this Alfredo and Steak.
