The season finale of True Blood and the Giants first game of the season happened to be on the same day a few weeks ago. That of course, meant a full day of hanging out in my family room with my family and friends. A few days before, David asked me if we could make Alfredo sauce. Someone at work had just heated up their leftovers and it smelled so good so he wanted some. With that one request we had our dinner planned for Sunday night. To round out the dish we added sauteed chicken breasts and steamed broccoli which I think made a really good combination. This recipe made just enough sauce for a pound of pasta which fed the 4 of us with no leftovers. I will not be making this often since it is so high in fat and calories but it was really good and perfect for a once in a while treat.
