Fettuccine Alfredo

By Prasanna Hede @savorybites0411

I wanted to try different pasta recipes since some time back ...you must have seen my recipe of Spaghetti in spicy curry recipe, same way I thought this time I will make something different which I had not done before :)

Recently, I wanted to try homemade Alfredo recipe, so instead of going for a store bought jar, made an attempt with Alfredo at home and turned out good!!

I was running short on boneless chicken to incorporate , so I made a Veggie version...without chicken and with of Mushrooms and Green Peas.

Those of you who want to try the non-veg version can use Chicken or any other meat of your choice...I think this dish will even taste awesome with Clams/Mussels or Shrimps.
I made this on a lazy Sunday afternoon for lunch and it took hardly 30 mins to fix lunch for me...so may be if someone wants to try it on a working day might as well can go for it!!

I served this along with Black Seedless Grapes, sliced and marinated in spices...which was truly awesome too!!
So try this and enjoy your pasta!!
