You will not believe this sauce is lowfat, it is that rich. Very similar to the Olive Garden Alfredo sauce.
In a skillet, melt butter and add the flour to make a roux. Stir for 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Add the milk, half and half, garlic, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Cook until the sauce is slightly thickened. Remove from heat.
Cook the fettucine according to the package directions. Mix with sauce. Serve immediately.
I have also added about 3 ounces of Neuchatel cheese to the sauce and it makes an even richer flavor. You might also add in some broccoli or even some chicken breast meat for a more substantial meal.
