I am always looking for recipes that are a healthier twist on our families favorite foods.  My husband loves Fettuccine Alfredo.  I have had it for a long time, but thought it would be a fail, boy was I wrong.  My husband and I both literally licked our bowls clean.  And then my husband was suggesting alternating chicken for shrimp adding in veggies.   This recipe for Low Calorie Chicken Alfredo is officially in our weekly rotation.

Low Calorie Chicken Alfredo

Have you ever tried Shirataki Noodles, mushroom noodles?  When I first heard about them I thought for sure no one in my favorite would like them.  I was wrong.  They are such a great replacement for pasta.  Just a word of warning when you open the package you may think that they have spoiled, but that is their normal smell.

Combine them with Laughing cow cheese which is a low calorie cheese.  It creates the creamy alfredo sauce without the fat and calories of the traditional one.
