Use your food processor to make the easy, seven-ingredient sauce in this creamy pasta recipe. Ingredients:
1/3 cup fat-free cottage cheese |
1/3 cup fat-free sour cream |
3 tablespoons commercial pesto |
3 tablespoons hot water |
2 teaspoons lemon juice |
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt |
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper |
1 cup snow peas, trimmed and thinly cut crosswise (4 cuts per pod) |
1 1/2 cups (4 ounces) uncooked farfalle (bow tie pasta) |
3/4 cup frozen peas, thawed |
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley |
Directions:
1. Place the first 7 ingredients (through pepper) in a food processor; process until smooth.
2. Place snow peas in a colander, and set colander in sink. Cook pasta according to package directions, omitting salt and fat (about 12 minutes). Drain over snow peas; rinse under cold water, and drain well. Combine pasta, snow peas, frozen peas, and pesto mixture in a large bowl, and toss to coat. Sprinkle with parsley.
