1 cube butter (yes I said cube)
1 pint cream
8 oz shredded parmesan cheese and for the love of all that's holy, not that nasty grated stuff!
1 clove of garlic VERY finely chopped. I would even approve to use of a garlic press for this sauce. I hate garlic presses.
6 Tbsp cream cheese
1/4 cup prepared pesto of choice
melt your butter and add garlic. Let the garlic saute just until it is fragrant. Add cream and when it is warm add the cream cheese and the parmesan. cook on low-ish heat until it is smooth. It may take a little bit. Be patient. After the sauce is smooth, add the prepared pesto stir well and serve over your favorite pasta with chicken (prepared however you prefer, baked if it makes you feel better about ingesting so many calories in the sauce, it will still require an extra mile on the treadmill, but hey) Note that it will thicken more as you take it off the heat. I could eat it every day. I better not.
I just remembered the other day that you had this blog and I got really excited! I love the alfredo sauce you posted on the family blog, so I'm sure this one is great. So the bags of grated cheese are gross? I realized how unknowlegeable I am about cheese when I was looking at the fancy stuff at Sam's club. I was surprised to see other cheeses besides cheddar, parmesan, and mozzerella. I have a lot to learn.:)
ReplyDeleteYeah I am a bit of a cheese nut.... Cameron gives me a lot of crap :) No, the stuff in the bag is fine. That comment was for my mom.... she thinks the weird stuff you find on the shelf at walmart (that is all powdered) is the same as other cheese. As long as it will melt it is fine.... :)
