Creamy Parmesan Cheese Sauce

~Nimz~'s Note:

This is great served over almost any vegetable or cooked pasta. I have also made this on the stovetop. Just stir continuously for about the same amount of time.

• Total Time: 11 mins
• Prep Time: 5 mins
• Cook Time: 6 mins

Ingredients:

Yield: 1.5 cups

• 8 ounces cream cheese , cubed
• ½ cup grated parmesan cheese (use a good grade of parmesan cheese, not the bottled stuff)
• ¾ cup milk
• 1 dash ground nutmeg
• 1 dash pepper
• cooked pasta or cooked mixed vegetables , to serve

Directions:

1. Microwave cream cheese, milk and parmesan cheese in 1-quart microwave safe container.
2. Microwave on MEDIUM (50%) 6-8 minutes or until sauce is smooth, stirring every 2 minutes.
3. Stir in seasonings.
4. Toss with hot cooked pasta or serve over cooked veggies.
5. You may want to add some garlic, extra pepper, or other spices because this is a very mild cheese sauce. I have used a couple of cloves of garlic sauted in a little butter, when I cook it on the stove, and really like it that way also.

I made this on the stovetop and served it with ravioli. It was easy and delicious! Thanks for a great recipe!
