For the healthier alternative to our classic Alfredo, start off with getting a cup of yogurt and straining it in a sieve with a #2 coffee filter inside it. Rest the sieve over a small bowl so you don't make a mess in the fridge. You can do this overnight in the refrigerator for best results.
From there, you'll need these ingredients:
1 cup strained yogurt
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup evaporated skim milk
1/2 teaspoon olive oil
1 large clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup grated Parmesan or Romano cheese
1/2 cup fat-free milk
1 tablespoon Butter Buds
1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
12 ounce box fettucine pasta or other pasta like penne
Combine the strained yogurt with the cornstarch in a medium bowl. Stir until smooth. Add the evaporated skim milk. Then set aside. We'll come back to this.
Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the garlic and saute for a minute. Don't let the garlic brown. Add the yogurt mixture to the saucepan and stir. Add the remaining ingredients (except the pasta) to the saucepan and continue to heat over medium/low heat. If it begins to boil, turn heat to low and simmer. Stir this often.
While the the sauce is on simmer, boil the pasta to the package directions to al dente.
Toss the pasta and sauce together in a large bowl and serve. Enjoy!
