EASY Olive Garden Fettuccine Alfredo Recipe – Just 6 Ingredients!

My kids all LOVE Fettuccine Alfredo. I wanted to come up with an easy Alfredo recipe that they would enjoy. (Olive Garden's Fettuccine Alfredo has always been one of their favorites!).

Olive Garden does have their Olive Garden specials that are available, but we still don't go out to dinner at a restaurant very often.  So I found this Alfredo recipe and thought it could be a great meal to make at home.

It came out perfect!   

Years ago, my youngest even pronounced it “better than Tellini's” (which is where they used to get their Alfredo fix ~ back when they had Kids Eat Free days!)

It doesn't require any fancy ingredients, and after making it I won't be buying prepared Alfredo Sauce every again. It's just so easy to do it at home!

How Do You Make Homemade Alfredo Sauce?

Alfredo sauce is one of those things that seems somewhat daunting when you first think about making it.  However, it's really quite easy!  You'll need butter, cream cheese, heavy cream, and your seasonings.  And it's SO good!
