Wake up, shower, get ready, eat breakfast, make lunch, pack the car, work, drop off dry-cleaning, drive home, do laundry, fold clothes, check e-mail, make dinner, vacuum, GO GO GO...For nights that you need a quick homemade pasta dish for dinner, lean on a container of Gorgonzola cheese and some heavy cream to get you through. AND I promise will be on the table in less than 15 minutes!
Ingredients & Recipe:
Printable Recipe
- 1 cup of Gorgonzola cheese
- 1 cup of heavy cream
- 1 tab of butter (optional)
- 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese
- S & P
- 1 pound of whole-wheat pasta (fettuccine preferably)
- dash of dried parsley
Prepare your pasta to "al dente" (which means cooked but with a bite, not mushy).
Heat cream and Gorgonzola in a soup pot over medium heat, stirring constantly until melted. Stir in the Parmesan cheese, S & P, and butter (if using- butter will just add another layer of richness). Let the mixture thicken as it comes up to a simmer. Pour over hot pasta & sprinkle with parsley, enjoy!
