LXXXV: Smarter Fettuccine Alfredo

I always feel guilty wanting alfredo so this might be a good substitute.

8 oz fettuccine, uncooked
1.25 c chicken broth
4 t flour
1/3 c cream cheese
4 T grated parmesan cheese
1/8 t ground nutmeg
2 T chopped fresh parsley

Cook pasta as directed on package.
Meanwhile, combine broth and flour in medium saucepan. Stir in cream cheese spread; cook 2 minutes, stirring constantly until mixture boils and thickens.
Toss pasta with sauce, 2 T of the parmesan cheese and nutmeg. Sprinkle with remaining 1 T parmesan cheese and the parsley. Season to taste with black pepper.
