    I don't know that there is one. Just make good choices the rest of the week and enjoy. Some things are better left un-adjusted.

    I made a chicken alfredo using spaghetti squash instead of pasta.

    boneless chicken breast (bite size pieces)
    whole spaghetti squash
    frozen broccoli, cauliflower, and carrot mix
    4 wedges Laughing Cow Garlic and Herb wedges
    3/4 C. low fat shredded mozarella
    spices (garlic, basil, and black pepper)

    Cut the squash in half and bake (cut side down) at 350 for 40 min.
    Cook chicken and veggies
    When Squash is done, scoop out the seeds. Then take a fork and shred the squash
    Mix everything together until the cheeses are melted.


    ^^^This^^^ Was a hit at my house too, so now it's a regular dish!

    I just heard about these products from a forum yesterday, I personally have not tried them but they say thier alfredo has zero calories. This weekend i will be near a store that sells them and will try a few products out. I do hear they are made with splenda so that might not work for you if you dont use that. You can also but it online..

    maybe someone can let us know if it tastes any good

    Hit and miss with their stuff. The Alfredo, I can tell you definitively, is HORRID.

    I made this up recently based on what I had in the house, but it's really worked out well. Serves 4, 74 calories a serving!

    5 T Light Coffee Mate (or milk or cream)
    2 Light Swiss cheese wedges (like Laughing Cow)
    2 T Light cream cheese
    3 T Light Sour Cream
    1 T Plain Greek Yogurt
    1 T Parmesan cheese
    1 t garlic powder
    Salt & Pepper to taste

    I don't recommend them at all. Not one natural ingredient and tastes like it. Go for the laughing cow recipe or just buy one of the light ones from a jar. I would take the calories over a jar of synthetics.
