For all the Alfredo sauce lovers out there.  Try our family favorite with the added bonus of goat cheese and pesto.

Ingredients

Main ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons prepared pesto (I used Sabras brand)

  • 1 and 1/2 cups milk

  • salt, to taste

  • pepper, to taste

Directions

Prepare the Pesto and Pasta

1.

In a deep sauté pan on low heat, melt butter and then add in garlic and stir.

2.

Add a quarter cup flour and mix in with butter till it becomes a thick paste.  This is called a roux.

3.

While continuously stirring add the sour cream and goat cheese, then add pesto until it also becomes thick.

4.

Add in the milk slowly, and continue whisking till it thickens, which will happen at boiling point.

5.

Toss in cooked pasta and mix well.  Serve with a poached egg on top.

Creamy pesto sauce!!! Even though we all have the time to make homemade pasta now that we are all stuck at home and quarantined I still wasn’t brave enough to try it out I guess there’s always tomorrow! The pesto sauce I did try though and it was delicious!! A little heavy but totally gave me the restaurant vibe!! I will totally try this again!! Maybe next time I’ll even make the homemade pasta
