AG, my lighter version of Alfredo sauce is something I made up as I cooked it, and it turned out pretty good.

I sautéed the shrimp in olive oil with a half tablespoon of butter, then removed the shrimp. I added a small amount of white wine (1/2 cup) and reduced that down, then added milk instead of cream, and simmered that a while to reduce it down a bit. To that I added 3 cloves of garlic finely chopped, S and P, and about a 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese to thicken the sauce. I finished off the pasta for the last minute or two of the cooking time in the sauce, and then added the shrimp back for a minute to warm it up a bit.

I think if I had some condensed skim milk it would have been a good thing to try, but I didn't have any. Of course you could add more butter if you wanted to if you're not trying to loose or maintain weight. Smiling I'm sure this still has enough calories. Hilarious!
