Last week I bought a boat load of cream cheese. It was on sale and I had intended to make a cheesecake for Easter. However, it was requested that I only make one dessert for family Easter because other people were making some, too. Therefore, I decided to make a Dreamsicle cake (recipe to follow) and use the cream cheese for something else. A friend recommended pasta with white sauce, so I thought, “Ah, alfredo!” This would also be really great with shrimp and scallops, maybe with a side of blanched broccoli.

As a warning, the sauce is really salty. I mean, really salty. But, once it’s on the pasta, it isn’t as salty anymore.

Ingredients:

• 1/4 c. margarine
• 1/4 c. olive oil
• 8 oz. cream cheese
• 2 c. milk
• 2 oz smoked provolone
• 1/4 c. shredded parmesan
• 1.5 Tbsp. dried basil
• 1.5 Tbsp. dried parsley
• 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
• 1/8 tsp. black pepper
• 3/4 tsp. salt
• 1 lb. vermicelli

Directions:
Melt together all ingredients (except pasta) over medium-low heat. When smooth and creamy, pour over cooked vermicelli noodles. Toss in whatever additives sound good, such as shrimp or chicken.
