{February 7} National Fettuccine Alfredo Day with CopyCat Olive Garden Recipe

My three girls love this fettuccine alfredo recipe. We've been making it for years thanks to friends who shared it with us. Before trying the recipe our favorite was Olive Garden fettuccine alfredo. To this day we will only eat this copycat recipe at home. Make it for your family today. It isn't a low fat or low calorie recipes so make sure you serve it with a healthy salad, some protein and watch your eating before and after for the day!
