My husband loves crab alfredo, but we simply cannot afford to eat out all the time. This one tastes just as good as what we find at restaurants-and saves us money! Ingredients:
3/4 cup milk |
1 1/4 cups heavy cream |
1/2 cup butter |
3 tablespoons light cream cheese |
1 cup parmesan cheese, grated |
1/4 cup romano cheese, grated |
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder |
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped |
1 teaspoon crushed basil |
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes |
8 large crab legs, cooked & meat removed or 10 ounces lump crabmeat, cartilage removed |
1 cup sliced mushrooms |
12 ounces whole grain fettuccine |
Directions:
1. Melt butter in saucepan. Add cream cheese.
2. When softened, add cream and parmesan. Add garlic, and stir well.
3. Simmer 15-20 minutes.
4. Boil pasta according to package directions, drain, & set aside.
5. If boiling your own, boil crab legs, crack open & remove meat. Press meat lightly between paper towels to remove excess moisture.
6. Mix everything together & serve.
