Essentialingredients Pasta Sauce I Made It

Essentialingredients Pasta sauce

I have a Vegetarian health nut son who would never touch Alfredo sauce with a ten foot pole....that is....until Brooke came up with this little gem.
Creamy White Bean Sauce For Pasta
I didn't actually have the Philadelphia cooking creme so I just subbed Philadelphia light spreadable cream cheese and to thin it I used vegetable broth. Giving it a taste test after making it I think it would also make a really yummy hummus like dip for a cold veggie tray or with some nice baguette. The possibilities are endless really.
I ended up cooking some whole wheat penne pasta and sauteed some spinach, cherry tomatoes, broccoli, onion and red pepper chunks and then adding the sauce to that. My son loved it! Benjamin and I both thank you Brooke! A great recipe!

LOL Brooke. Jim actually did try a little taste test on a spoon. I always get so focused on making a Vegetarian meal and a 'regular' meal that I often forget we could just go 'vegetarian' and my life would be a whole lot simpler, and we would be a whole lot healthier....however.....it is a mind change that must occur, and just hasn't yet. It was enjoyed by all 3 of us. Merci!
