EASY ALFREDO & ARTICHOKE FETTUCCINE
My husband loves fettucine alfredo and I love artichokes, but I have very little time to make it from scratch. This is great to make if you have leftover chicken to serve it with. Also, you can buy all of the ingredients in advance and make it when you have time.

EASY FETTUCCINE ALFREDO
This recipe is one of my familys favorites. My husband who is picky with this kind of sauce rated it up there with his favorite restaurant. In this I used the whole pack of cream cheese and added more milk so it would not be so thick. I also added chicken and broccoli. We dont like nutmeg so I left that out. I made ceasar salad and garlic bread with this also.
