| 8 ounces | fettuccine |
| 2 tablespoons | extra virgin olive oil |

Directions
In a pot of boiling, salted water, cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.

Whisk in the flour until smooth, about 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, Greek yogurt, milk, pepper and nutmeg. Bring to a low boil, stirring constantly. Lower the heat and simmer, stirring gently, until the mixture thickens, about 3 minutes. Stir in 3/4 cup Parmesan.
