In this recipe I would substitute the cream for plain yogurt, or use half cream, half yogurt
Fettucini
Boneless chicken, cubed
Broccoli (optional)
Salt and pepper
Parsley
1 pt. heavy cream
Parmesan cheese
1/4 c. milk
Butter
Boil box of fettucini according to directions. Meanwhile, cook broccoli and chicken until done. I usually boil chicken for 1 hour and cube it. When broccoli and chicken are done, toss in noodles with 2 tablespoons of butter. Add cream, milk, salt, pepper parsley and Parmesan cheese (almost half cup of cheese, more or less). Keep mixing until everything is blended.

Alfredo is not healthy. It uses cheese and heavy cream. Make a marinara instead if you want to be healthy.

Healthy and alfreadao are not commonly found in the same sentence but here is what I would do.
1. Use "Dream Field Wheat"pasta wich os only 5 carbs.
2. Use 1/2 and 1/2 instead of heavy cream.
3. Use mostly Broccoli, then chicken then pasta.
Here is my alfredo recipe:
Alfredo Sauce:
3 tbsp butter
8 fluid oz heavy whipping cream
Heaping ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
Heaping ¼ cup grated ramano cheese
1 egg yolk with a pinch of salt slightly beaten
3 tbsp sour cream
2 good dashes ground nutmeg
2 good dashes garlic parmesan popcorn flavoring
Salt to taste
2-3 tbsp grated parmesan for garnish
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add heavy cream, stirring constantly. Stir in salt, nutmeg, and popcorn seasoning, grated Parmesan cheese, and grated Romano cheese. Stir constantly until melted, then temper the egg yolk, and add to the sauce. Simmer over medium low heat for 3 to 5 minutes. Garnish with additional grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
Cheaters Alfredo Sauce:
1 pkg cream cheese softened and cut into cubes ********Youcan do this with low or no fat cream cheese as well
milk
seasonings (my faves are seasoned salt, celery salt, granulated garlic, onion powder)
Parmesan cheese optional
Pasta of choice…bowtie, fettuccini, shells etc…
Cook and drain the pasta
In a sauce pan melt the cream cheese and add milk slowly to get the desired thickness. Add the seasonings and a little parm if you want. You could also garnish with a little parm and dried or fresh chopped parsley.
Sometimes I make this with corn-canned/drianed-frozen/thawed/drained… peas-frozen/thawed/drained, onions-chopped/sautéed, frozen broccoli-you get the picture here, and even carrots-peeled/chopped/and sautéed with the onions.

Saute the skinless boneless chicken breast in hot oil.
Lightly steam the broccoli over the boiling noodles.
I find Bertolli Alfredo sauce has the lowest carbs.
Drain the noodles, slice the chicken breast diagonally.
Serve with broccoli on top of noodles & dress with sauce.

If you’re looking for an extra healthy recipe, I’d ditch the heavy cream from the alfredo sauce and stick with a tomato based sauce or no sauce at all!
You’d be amazed just how good a fresh pasta with grilled chicken, broccoli, onions, garlic, and tomatoes can be. Just add some olive oil, some white wine, or a bit of chicken stock to evenly distribute good flavor.
If you really are in the mood for alfredo then try using some fat free milk instead of cream, oh and ditch the butter.
Good luck doll!

Low Fat Chicken Alfredo
1 1/2 lbs. boneless skinless chicken breast
1 white onion (medium size)
8 oz uncooked (1/2 box) vermicelli spaghetti
2 oz shredded low fat Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon basil
2 teaspoons garlic powder (at least)
1/2 jar Heinz fat-free chicken gravy (6 oz)
1 tablespoon flour
6 oz low-fat sour cream
Cut chicken breast into 3/4 inch squares. Sauté in small amount of vegetable oil over medium to medium-low heat. Dice onions and add to chicken.
Cook chicken thoroughly, testing by cutting largest piece - juices should no longer run pink and chicken will be tender.
Sprinkle liberally with garlic powder, basil and allspice; stir in.
Stir in chicken gravy, reducing heat to a simmer. Sprinkle with flour and stir in water to achieve desired thickening. Do not rely on sour cream for thickness.
Simmer for 5 minutes over low heat, stirring in 2 oz of Parmesan cheese. Fold in sour cream and remove from heat.
Cook spaghetti according to package instructions. Drain and rinse with cool water. Top individual portions of spaghetti with Chicken Alfredo combination and then sprinkle remaining Parmesan on top.
Serves 4 (except in our family where it’s lucky to serve 3!)

Chicken Broccoli Shells
Ingredients
1 (16 ounce) jar Alfredo sauce
2 cups frozen chopped broccoli, thawed
2 cups diced cooked chicken
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
21 jumbo pasta shells, cooked and drained
Directions
In a large bowl, combine the Alfredo sauce, broccoli, chicken and cheeses. Spoon into pasta shells. Place in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking dish. Cover and bake at 350 degrees F for 30-35 minutes or until heated through.
I made this for myself and three friends, and there were no leftovers! I boiled and shredded the chicken breast and used two jars of alfredo sauce - one for the filling and one to pour over the shells. I will definately make this again.
