Take a look at the picture below. What would you guess this “fettuccine” is made out of?

Okay, so this picture isn’t the best. My apologies. How about this picture of the “pasta” with the Alfredo sauce, taken before all of the other ingredients were added…

The answer to the question: This fettuccine is actually flour tortillas that are cut into thin strips with a pizza cutter, and then cooked in the Alfredo sauce. This is probably not shocking to those of you who have been around the Meal Planning Mommies blog for a while. I love the Olé Xtreme Wellness High Fiber Low Carb 8 inch Wraps. If your store does not carry these tortillas, I have a list of other 1 WW SP tortillas here.

It’s not exactly like the traditional pasta you would find in your store, but I think you will find that the taste is equally enjoyable. I used three tortillas that were 1 WW SP each, so just 3 WW SP for the “pasta” part of this meal. But this meal has so much more, and the best part of it isn’t actually the “fettuccine.”

If you are looking for a fettuccine recipe that uses traditional pasta, we have that too. You may like the Chicken and Spinach Pasta Alfredo (5 WW SP per serving) or the Shrimp Parmesan Alfredo (6 WW SP per serving).

The best light Alfredo sauce.

Have you ever tried Classico Light Creamy Alfredo sauce? {affiliate link}

It’s so good in this recipe. I did add some other ingredients to help it along (Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and a pinch of nutmeg), but the sauce is everything.

Make this recipe your own.

There are several ingredients added to this Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo recipe. Some ingredients that go great in fettuccine are tomatoes, broccoli, bacon, and cheese. I started thinking I would be adding mozzarella cheese on top of this fettuccine, but I think you will find that is not necessary, so I took it out of the recipe ingredients.

If you do not like broccoli, tomatoes, or bacon, simply leave it (or them) out. They are not crucial, but they do up the yummy factor, add some good stuff for you, and bulk up the meal, leaving you feeling more satisfied.

You could even leave out those ingredients, put them in bowl, and allow everyone to add as much, or as little, of each ingredient as they’d like to their bowl of Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo.

I heart…

We had two of our kids’ friends over when I made this the other night. One asked for seconds and then thirds. She loved it. The other friend agreed with my youngest son that “I ruined it with broccoli”…so you know…do what makes you happy.

Alrighty, let’s see if we can’t make you happy with this healthy, delicious Chicken Bacon Fettuccine Alfredo recipe.

Here is what you will need:

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 (12 ounce) bag of frozen microwaveable broccoli
3 Olé Xtreme Wellness High Fiber Low Carb 8 inch Wraps or other 1 WW SP tortillas
8 ounces cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
1 (15 ounce) jar Classico Light Creamy Alfredo sauce
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Pinch of nutmeg
3 slices bacon, cooked, patted with paper towel, and crumbled

Here is what you do:

Brush chicken with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper. Cook chicken in a large skillet, covered, until fully cooked.

Cook broccoli in the microwave, according to the directions on the package.

(Pardon me while I zoom in…hmm…when did we wipe down the inside of this microwave last… ?)

Stack 3 tortillas on a large cutting board. Use a pizza cutter to cut the tortillas into thin strips that resemble the thickness of fettuccine.

Once chicken is fully cooked, transfer the chicken to the cutting board used to cut the tortillas. Slice chicken into thin strips or small chunks.

Add tomatoes to the skillet used to make the chicken and allow to cook 2-3 minutes, or until the tomatoes begin to wilt. Set tomatoes aside.

Add Alfredo sauce, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and nutmeg to the skillet and allow to cook 2 minutes. Stir the tortilla strips in with the sauce and cook the “pasta” in the sauce for 5 minutes. (Pictured below from left to right: sauce cooking, “pasta” cooking, chicken is mixed in with sauce and pasta.)

Toss chicken, broccoli, tomatoes, and bacon in with the Fettuccine Alfredo.
