Every so often I'll make my girls this homemade, incredible rich, alfredo pasta. As I'm making the sauce, I watch as I whisk it's creamy consistency around and around, and I can't help but think..."Who needs bathing suit season anyway! I'd much rather just drink this."
I'm not saying eating alfredo sauce means that you won't fit into a bathing suit.
I'm saying the way I WOULD EAT alfredo sauce means...I wouldn't be able to get off the couch.
I've been wanting to make an incredibly delicious and healthy alfredo pasta for The Diva Dish for a long time. I still haven't perfected it, but I did however come up with this recipe when I was having a rough day and wishing for some comfort food.
It's a quick and easy version of a creamy pasta that is EXTREMELY easy, so much so that you might actually be able to sit down and enjoy lunch. Not a lot of cleanup, serves 1-2 people...Oh, and it's good for you!

I'm headed off to Virginia this weekend, so there might not be a video on Friday...SHOCKER!
In the mean time, pray for me that I don't have a complete anxiety attack on the airplane. I'm incredibly afraid of flying, I might need a horse tranquilizer pill to calm my nerves...
