A big bowl of creamy Fettuccine Alfredo is like comfort in a bowl. This dish is sinfully delicious and can be made in 20 minutes or less. I love creamy pastas. I love all kinds of pastas but Fettuccine Alfredo is such a classic that you can never turn it away when its made for you. It’s one of my kids absolute favorite dishes for me to make them.
You can either make this dish meatless or with chicken, bacon, mushrooms, or veggies. Fettuccine Alfredo is a great way to show how a few ingredients can be the most divine dinner meal ever.
If you don’t believe me then try for yourself.
