Garlic Parmesan Sauce

[ 0 ] November 10, 2009 | Johnna

1/4 cup butter

3 cloves garlic (minced)

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Salt (to taste)

Pepper (to taste)

1/2 cup half and half

Saute the garlic in the butter over low-medium heat. Add in the Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper; stir into mixture. Add in the half and half and stir constantly until fully blended and smooth. Add to your favorite pasta and serve.

*Johnna’s tip: We’ve gotten lazy. We know you can see it. We are experimenting with every pasta infused recipe we can think of because honestly pasta is so easy to make. After a long day, nothing seems better than plopping down on the couch under one of our throws and flipping channels or thumbing thru our magazine collection. This is the feeling we had last night so we pulled out a few ingredients we had on hand and matched this sauce with mushroom stuffed ravioli. Topped with some chopped parsley, we were satisfied and still had time to watch a little brainless TV.
