CarbOptions Alfredo sauce, if you can find it.
But Alfredo is REALLy easy to make. It's just heavy cream, parmesan cheese and butter. Depending on how much you want to make... you just melt the butter, add the cream, let it reduce, add parm cheese and let reduce more. I also add white pepper to mine. It's awesome!

But no wine on a 'clean induction' and check the chicken soup for no-no additives!Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

I different twist on the Alfredo sauce - it is much richer, but it tends to make a little more, and you end up using less of it - which in my eyes is a great thing. The thing to remember - portion control folks! :yes
1 - 8 oz package of cream cheese
3 oz of heavy cream
4 oz of freshly grated ( or the can kind ) Parmesan cheese
Garlic powder - to taste
Salt - to taste
Pepper - to taste
and for those of you with my taste buds - a nice pinch of cayenne pepper
Melt and mix it all together in a small pot - it will turn to a nice, thick, creamy sauce. I usually make a batch of it up ( it will keep for a week ), and put a spoonful on my cup of broccoli to brighten it up. I also toss a couple of spoonfulls in with some sauteed chicken, peppers and summer squash for a nice light meal. I have a ton of uses for this sauce. Sometimes I really thin it out by adding a can of "College" brand chicken stock ( zero carbs ), some diced celery, onion, and a wee bit of tomato, a bunch of cilantro, and some chicken pieces - to make a nice cream of chicken soup. Or sometimes leave out the chicken, add some broccoli and have that. - I just keep in mind portion control and keep a virtual record on all of the carbs in the pot - and divide it up to allowable portions. I eat it off and on all week long - makes for a nice quick meal.
Hope this helps :icondance"Cowboy Up"
