Fettuccine Pasta Alfredo

This meal is great for one of those days that you don't really feel like cooking but still want a home cooked meal. It has to be the fastest and easiest pasta that I have made. The taste is exactly the same as traditional alfredo sauce but without all the fat and calories. I added broccoli and peas to this version but I have also added roasted red bell pepper and pine nuts before. Don't be afraid to play around and experiment by adding different vegetables to it.
