Easy Microwave Creamy Alfredo Sauce
Description: This is a rich sauce made very simply in the microwave. Dinner can be on the table in just a few minutes if using fresh pasta. I acquired this recipe many years ago from our local newspaper.
Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup whipping cream, 35%
- 1/4 cup butter (no substitutes)
- 1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- fresh ground pepper, to taste
Steps:
- In a 1 quart dish, micro-cook cream and butter at high for 2-3 minutes or until very hot. Stir in parmesan cheese and pepper and toss with hot cooked pasta.
- I usually top with fresh parsley to dress it up.
- Variations: Mushrooms, tomatoes, broccoli, shrimp and/or chicken can all be added but must be cooked before hand.
