Before Making the sauce, I like to have my pasta boiling. I prefer penne pasta for this Alfredo sauce because the pasta holds the sauce better.

Boil pasta al dente for best results! (Follow instructions on the box.)  Also, sprinkle in salt.

Add garlic. You may chop up your own garlic, this is just convenient. Another option is garlic powder.
