This is great served over almost any vegetable or cooked pasta. I have also made this on the stovetop. Just stir continuously for about the same amount of time. Ingredients:
8 ounces cream cheese, cubed |
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (use a good grade of parmesan cheese, not the bottled stuff) |
3/4 cup milk |
1 dash ground nutmeg |
1 dash pepper |
cooked pasta or cooked mixed vegetables, to serve |
Directions:
1. Microwave cream cheese, milk and parmesan cheese in 1-quart microwave safe container.
2. Microwave on MEDIUM (50%) 6-8 minutes or until sauce is smooth, stirring every 2 minutes.
3. Stir in seasonings.
4. Toss with hot cooked pasta or serve over cooked veggies.
5. You may want to add some garlic, extra pepper, or other spices because this is a very mild cheese sauce. I have used a couple of cloves of garlic sauted in a little butter, when I cook it on the stove, and really like it that way also.
