Healthy "Skinny" Alfredo

Something about calling recipes "skinny" annoys me slightly, but I am calling it that anyways. I guess
it's just because I dislike a focus on being thin and prefer a focus on being healthy.

To be honest, if I had had cream in the house, you'd better believe I would have whipped up a batch of the good stuff. I didn't though, so my brain thought--"Hey! I have greek yogurt!" and off to Google I went.

I found a few recipes but most of them had bad reviews, so I wasn't about to duplicate any of them completely. I did what I do best and threw a bunch of ingredients in a bowl and mixed it all together.

I started with a half of a cup of plain greek yogurt and then added 1/2 tsp of salt…yeah that was WAY too much. Here are the actual amounts of things I used:

1 cup plain greek yogurt
1/2 tsp salt
pinch black pepper
pinch italian seasoning
pinch oregano

...and then it tasted too much like greek yogurt so I did something kinda bad and I added about 1/4 cup of Smart Balance. I haven't done any research on it because I don't usually use it--it was sitting in the fridge from something my boyfriend made, but I figure it probably has a bunch of hydrogenated oils and I might have been better off with the heavy cream.

I grilled up some chicken and sautéed some mushrooms and tossed it all together with some pasta and parmesan cheese!

Not to shabby, but not as good as the real stuff!

Love and Light,
