CHICKEN FETTUCCINI ALFREDO
Here, classic chicken fettuccini Alfredo may have been reinvented into a lighter version, but this recipe doesn't skimp on the dish's signature great creamy taste and texture. Heavy cream is combined with full-fat Greek yogurt to create the cheesy sauce's luscious mouthful. Patting the chicken dry before cooking it helps it to brown which develops the dish's flavor so it's worth the extra effort. For a hint of spice, you can add 1/4 teaspoon of freshly grated nutmeg to the sauce. You can also use basil instead of parsley. Serve with a mixed greens salad tossed with balsamic or red wine vinaigrette for comforting meal.

WW FETTUCCINE ALFREDO
This is an outstanding dish. I always add some shrimp and mushrooms to the dish. I know the shimp adds more points but it is so worth it. Without the shrimp and mushrooms you get 7 points per serving. Serving size is 1 cup. Serve piping hot while it's creamiest. Happy eating.
