Dorm Room Fettuccine Alfredo

1. 1

   In at least a qt size bowl add cream cheese and butter.

2. 2

   Microwave on medium setting, stirring every couple of minutes till there is no longer any separation between the butter and cream cheese and it is nice and smooth ( I like to use a whisk if I have one).

3. 3

   Add the milk and return to the microwave repeating the stirring every couple minutes.

4. 4

   When it gets bubbly and begins to thicken remove from microwave and add Parmesan, stir.

5. 5

   If you use the shelf stable grated Parmesan the texture will be a bit off and it also will be somewhat more salty.

6. 6

   I like to use Neufchatel, the cream cheese with less fat and I like to use the shredded Parmesan in the dairy case.

7. 7

   I lived off this stuff and college and still make for a sauce to use when I want to add quick cheese sauce something.

8. 8

   Grab a rotisserie chicken at the store and you can have chicken alfredo.

9. 9

   I imagine some people have microwaved noodles before.

10. 10

    This whole meal could be made with only a microwave.
