Quick and Easy Alfredo

Prep Time:5 min
Total Time:20 min
Makes:4 servings, 1 cup each
1/2 lb. fettuccine, uncooked
1-1/4 cups fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth/vegetable broth
4 tsp. flour
1/3 cup PHILADELPHIA Light Cream Cheese Spread
3 Tbsp. KRAFT 100% Grated Parmesan Cheese, divided
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp. pepper
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
COOK pasta as directed on package.
MEANWHILE, mix broth and flour in medium saucepan with wire whisk. Add cream cheese spread, 2 Tbsp. of the Parmesan cheese, the nutmeg and pepper; cook 2 min. or until mixture comes to boil and thickens, stirring constantly.
DRAIN pasta; place in large bowl. Add sauce; toss to coat. Sprinkle with remaining 1 Tbsp. Parmesan cheese and the parsley.
As always, I'm a modifier. I've added faux crab to this dish, but I'm sure shrimp, chicken, or anything you desire would be good, and extra parsley is always a plus!
