Creamy Pasta Alfredo Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

This recipe is a combination of a few delicious creamy italian dishes. It uses spaghetti, cream cheese, milk, eggs, parmesan cheese, and bacon to make the creamiest pasta alfredo ever. You can use other types of long pasta if you'd like. It would work with spaghetti, linguine, fettuccine, or cavatappi, which is a long spiral pasta. Some prefer a pasta made with whole grains (not whole wheat pasta, which is too intensely flavored for this recipe). Just make sure the pasta is cooked al dente (or "To the tooth") and that you eat this as soon as it's made. This pasta really can't wait around, because the sauce will continue thickening as it stands. Serve with a crisp and cool green salad tossed with a simple vinaigrette or a spicy honey mustard dressing, some toasted garlic bread, and white wine. And for dessert, an ice cream pie would be perfect. Enjoy every bite of this easy meal.
