    Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
    -------- ------------ --------------------------------
    1/3 cup Carnation nonfat dry milk powder
    1/2 warm water
    2 tablespoons reduced-calorie margarine -- plus
    2 teaspoons reduced-calorie margarine
    3/4 cup (2 1/4 oz) grated Kraft House Italian or
    Parmesan cheese
    2 cups hot cooked fettuccine

    My daughter-in-law Pam is the Alfredo lover in the family. She told me
    this was as good as any she's eaten in a restaurant. (Thanks Pam!) If you
    love creamy pastas but have avoided them because of the fat, here's your
    chance to eat what you like--and stay healthy.

    1. In a large bowl, combine dry milk powder and warm water. Add
    reduced-calorie margarine and House Italian cheese. Mix until blended.
    Add hot fettuccine and toss to coat. Serve at once. Serves 4 (2/3 cup).
    Freezes well.

    HINT: 1 1/2 cups uncooked fettuccine usually makes 2 cups cooked.
