Easy Fettuccine Alfredo

This Easy Fettuccine Alfredo recipe is simply delicious. Cheesy, creamy, and made from scratch, this sauce is the perfect comfort food made at home.

This easy Fettuccine Alfredo is a household staple. I became addicted to cheese sauce once I married my husband. He loves cheese more than the average person and we have raised 5 little cheese lovers to boot. So you can imagine the amount of alfredo sauce we make in our home.

I decided to share this recipe, one which has been a long time coming. My friend who I went on the cruise with as well suggested one of us share a fettuccine alfredo sauce recipe because  Princess Cruises has the best ever alfredo sauce. I immediately volunteered because I seriously ordered it for every meal. Not kidding. The group made fun of me and joked about my cheese sauce issue.

I not only ordered this alfredo sauce for every meal but I even ordered their nacho cheese sauce to eat my fries with. This became my thing after sailing through the Panama Canal last year with  Princess Cruises and I had it one afternoon for a snack and continued to order it for lunch – every single day thereafter.

The point of this whole story is that you can never go wrong with cheese sauce.

All of my cruising experiences have inspired some other amazing recipes including:

Coconut Knots
Island Blue Cocktail
Mango Salsa
Sheet Pan Pizza

Of course, I also have shared an Alaskan cruise packing list and an Alaskan cruise port excursion must-dos.

What I love most about this alfredo sauce recipe is easy of making it. Just a few simple ingredients, about 20 minutes, and you are ready to devour the best ever homemade Fettuccine Alfredo.

Homemade pizza. You can order this in at two different places when sailing to Alaska. The first is Alfredo’s Pizzeria, open poolside. I love this as a late afternoon snack since we didn’t eat dinner until almost 8 PM every night.

Oh, wait, and you can’t forget the steak! I am not a big steak fan, but the seasoning salt and the way they cook it I love. So happy I stepped out on a limb on my first cruise with them because I look forward to this steak every single time.

Enough on the food? Do I have you convinced to try this homemade alfredo sauce? Or even head over and book your cruise? LOL!

Overall I love Alaska, and I would highly recommend for anyone to see Alaska this way, especially the first time you go to find the places you love and maybe would want to spend more time at.

While I didn’t really get the overall feel of Anchorage we did have about 6 hours to spend before our plane took off and so Princess recommended taking a little tour. It was a glacier and scenic tour and honestly, there were two highlights. On tour guide, the sweetest elderly lady who was probably the funniest person I have ever met. She was also an on-the-edge driver which made me stay awake the entire time, let’s just say there was never a dull moment and I loved that.

The second was the animal sanctuary we visited which had the most fantastic bear with the most prominent personality, he belongs in Hollywood. I am not joking. He posed for the cameras and moved around so gracefully, well, at least for a bear. I swear every movement was a pose.

If you have time, this was fun, at least it was better than sitting in the airport for 6 hours. When you fly out of Anchorage, remember it is a small airport. Even with short lines at security, still, give yourself at least an hour and a half because I think everyone in the airport moves at a more relaxed pace.

So while you may not be heading to Alaska anytime soon, there is no reason not to go ahead and make this Fettuccine Alfredo recipe. It will become one of your favorite go-to meals.
