Found this on while looking for an easy, low cal pasta sauce. As I couldn't find many here that didn't involove a lot of tomatoes, I thought I'd submit it here as well. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups 1% fat cottage cheese |
2 garlic cloves, cut in half |
1/2 cup skim milk |
2 tablespoons flour |
3 teaspoons fresh lemon juice |
1 teaspoon leaves basil, crumbled |
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard |
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 lb pasta, of your choice |
1 medium ripe tomato, cut in half, seeded & coarsely chopped |
Directions:
1. Place cottage cheese, garlic and skim milk in food processor.
2. Process until there are no lumps.
3. Add flour, lemon juice, basil, mustard, pepper and salt.
4. Blend.
5. Set aside in a medium size saucepan.
6. Cook pasta according to directions and drain.
7. Place in large bowl.
8. Heat ingredients in saucepan over a medium-low heat and allow to thicken slightly.
9. Stir until sauce just begins to boil. Do not allow sauce to come to a full boil.
10. Pour sauce over pasta and toss gently to coat.
11. Garnish with tomato. Serve immediately.
