It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

If you are cutting calories then this copycat recipe from Strings Restaurant is a good choice of Alfredo sauce. It uses non-fat milk, arrowroot starch, and non-fat cheese for a tasty but healthy recipe.
1 quart non-fat milk
1 tablespoon garlic salt
2 tablespoons Molly McButter
1/4 cup arrowroot starch
1/4 cup water
1 cup shredded non-fat mozzarella cheese
salt, to taste
white pepper, to taste
Combine all ingredients except for the starch, cheese and water and put into a sauce pan and bring to a boil.
Blend together the arrowroot and cold water then add slowly to the sauce, stirring constantly. Let sauce simmer for 2 minutes.
Remove from heat. Slowly add and blend in the cheese.

Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

I love alfredo but don't need all those calories. I almost didn't look at thsi recipe because it didn't say lowfat in the title but when I read the ingredients I saw it was. Tastes great for being so low fat.

I modified to suit ingredients I had. Corn starch for Arrowroot. Added some shredded cheddar and parm in addition to the mozz. Liked the fact that this recipee uses milk instead of cream. Added a left over pork chop, red pepper flakes and some steamed broccoli and served over pasta. Came out pretty darn good!
