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.

1 1/2 cups (change servings and units)

Ingredients

8 ounces cream cheese, cubed
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (use a good grade of parmesan cheese, not the bottled stuff)
3/4 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.

This sauce is so easy to do. And it tastes great even though I added only pepper and no-salt seasoning. I used low-fat cream cheese and skim milk. But another time I may add more milk cause the sauce is very thick. Thanks Nimz. Made for Potluck tag

Very yummy!!! I made this with the parmesan baked chicken # 40597 and served with noodles and broccoli. I added garlic, dried onion, paprika, ground pepper. I also used 1/4 half&half and the balance was the milk. SO GOOD!!!

Really good sauce. After seeing the pasta photos, I had a real craving for pasta, lol. I used a Fiesta Fettuccine pasta mix (multi-colored fettuccine) and this sauce was really yummy. I added some minced garlic, a few red crushed peppers and some parsley. Thanks for another winner Nimz. And congrats on your football win.
