THIS RECIPE LOOKS DELICIOUS, BUT HIGH CALORIE. I AGREE WITH THE OTHER REVIEWS. USE A SMALL AMOUNT OF HALF AND HALF AND THE REST 2% MILK. USE TURKEY BACON AND WHOLE WHEAT SPAGHETTI.

It is obvious that this is a high fat recipe. No where does it state otherwise. Not sure why people are complaining. If you want healthy recipe go elsewhere! You can tweak this recipe to make it healthier! Use a light alfredo sauce from a jar? Use whole wheat spaghetti noodles and fat free ham instead of bacon. You could lightly sprinkle bacon bits on the top for some bacon flavor with out all of the extra fat.

SO delicious! I added some cubed chicken and onions, cooked in the bacon fat, too. I can tell you this is a RICH dinner, but in moderation, I'll be happy to serve every few weeks :)

This recipe does have a high fat content but it is delish! As a healthcare professional I wouldn't recommend eating this every week but it is going in my recipe box under comfort food and I will not feel at all guilty about serving it to family and friends. It is great made with chunky ham as well.

The nutritional information is listed at the bottom of the recipe. And by putting it in a casserole dish it can be cut into 12 servings.

Curious about the nutritional value (or rather lack thereof) of this high fat dish, I see you list 12 servings from 1 lb of spaghetti. In what world?
