Olive Garden Alfredo

1/4 pound butter (This is what the recipe calls for we use 4 Tablespoons)

Flour

1 teaspoon garlic puree

2 cups heavy cream (if you don’t want it as bad for you you can use milk.  We usually do that, but the cream is much better)

1/4 whole milk (you can use 1% or 2% to save on calories too)

1/2 parmesan cheese (much better with fresh, but we usually just use the dried stuff)

Salt and Pepper to taste

Melt butter with garlic puree.  Don’t burn the garlic.   Add flour to make a roux.  Add heavy cream and milk (Or just 2  1/4 cups milk) and cheese.  Stir with a whisk till thickens.  Add salt and pepper to taste

My great grandma made this for my grandma when she was a little girl.  Then my grandma made it for my dad when he was a boy.  Now my dad makes it for me.  It is so yummy for lunch.
