Ingredients:
1 serving of angel hair pasta
2 tsp butter
3 tbl green onion, sliced thin, white end
< 1/4 c heavy cream
2 tbl grated Parmesan
salt and pepper
Make the pasta to directions. I made homemade angel hair a day prior so it took 2-3 minutes to cook. Drain and set in bowl.
Heat pan to med-high, add butter, throw in onions, mix around and keep an eye on them for maybe a minute. If butter starts to turn brown, pour in cream. Oh, for this, you can't substitute milk. Based on experience, only heavy cream will hold up to the heat. Add salt and pepper, let mixture get hot for maybe a minute. Pour in parm and stir. Take off heat and pour on top of pasta. Top with a little more pepper if that's the sort of thing you like to do.
Here's what this quickie will cost you in nutrition. I've estimated amount of cream and the nutritional value for the amount of pasta I made. Calories: 503, Total fat: 36g, 23g sat fat, Carbs: 25g, Sugar: 1g, Fiber: 1g, Protein: 12g. What's the point... this quickie might be good and fast, it'll cost you in the long run.
Sorry for the sloppy looking plate, I'll try much harder next time Mom.
