Shrimp Fettucine Alfredo

Ingredients:
  • 16 oz. shrimp (deveined and peeled)
  • 1 bunch of green onions
  • 1/2 small yellow onion
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 7 wedges of Laughing Cow cheese (I used Light Garlic and Herb)
  • 1 cup lowfat milk
  • 1 tbsp margarine (I used Smart Balance)
  • 1 tbsp parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Oil spray
  • 4 cups cooked whole wheat pasta
  • Pepper to taste
Directions:

  1. Dice green and yellow onions, along with the garlic clove. Place in a Pam sprayed skillet and cook for a minute.
  2. Add shrimp and cook for a couple minutes, until the shrimp is done.
  3. In a small pot, place LC cheese, milk, margarine, parmesan cheese and powder together.
  4. Keep on low until it melts, mixing ever so often. You may want to start the sauce first because it takes the longest.
  5. In a larger pot, boil spaghetti.
  6. After the spaghetti and alfredo are done, add to the shrimp and combine together (either in the skillet or the pasta pot...wherever it all fits).
  7. Add pepper to taste! ENJOY!
 
Serves 6.
