Slowly but surely we’re trying to incorporate more recipes that aren’t as processed. Canned alfredo sauce has so many added chemicals that definitely aren’t good for us. This sauce is so easy to make and goes great with any type of pasta or chicken dish.
INGREDIENTS
1 lb box of whole-grain pasta
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup heavy whipping cream
2/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper, to taste
DIRECTIONS
In a large pot, boil the pasta according to package directions Meanwhile melt all the butter and 2/3 of the cream in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Stir with a wooden or other large spoon. Once the cream and butter start to thicken (after a couple minutes) turn the heat off. When the pasta is done drain it thoroughly in a colander and add drained noodles to the cream and butter mixture. Turn the heat back on to medium-low and add the remaining 1/3 cup cream and all of the Parmesan cheese. Toss the pasta around to coat until the sauce thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper and portion out into pasta bowls. Garnish with extra Parmesan cheese and fresh sautéed vegetables (if desired) and serve immediately.
