Classico's Alfredo Sauces
Only 110 calories and five grams of saturated fat... for a quarter-cup serving.
Double the serving to a more-realistic half-cup of sauce over two cups of pasta and the damage comes into focus:
- 19 grams of total fat (ten of which head straight for your heart)
- more than a third of a day's sodium
That's a lot of "bad-for-you".
Try making your own Alfredo using Land O Lakes rich-tasting Fat Free Half and Half:
Melt a tablespoon of tub margarine in a saucepan over medium heat and stir in a tablespoon of all-purpose flour until smooth and bubbly. Gradually stir in a half-cup of the half and half and continue cooking and stirring until the mixture thickens. Toss in some crushed garlic and fresh parsley, sprinkle with a little parmesan, and you've got your own Classico.
