I‘m constantly trying to revamp the beloved recipes and finding a Healthier replacements. This one worked out so well and Absolutely Delicious! You can use this sauce with seafood recipes, as I have done, or any other meat.
Bought these Super Tasty Florida Wild Shrimp on Sale at The Fresh Market. Love that store!!! The Scallops I had on hand from Publix.
The sauce is similar to Alfredo, but SO MUCH HEALTHIER!
You are going to LOVE this Easy and Incredibly Delicious, Creamy, Luscious dinner!

Anna,
I needed to let you know that your recipe was amazing. My husband is currently at goal for Weight Watchers (he lost 50 pounds this last year) and he needs a large amount of quality healthy food. I actually used non fat greek yogurt and non fat feta for the recipe and my husband said not to change anything.
Thank you for cleaning up the recipe and reducing the fat, you don’t need much to make a delicious meal.
Oh Linda! What a joy to read your comment! Thank you! I know how difficult it is to find a delicious and healthy meal that is easy to prepare. Congrats to your Hubby! 50 pounds – WOW! Maybe you will find other recipes on my blog that will work for both of you!
