Most of us love a good pasta dish. The challenge is making it work for my diet. Gluten-free pasta has become more poplar so it is easy to find brown-rice and quinoa blend pastas. Now we must improve the sauce. Pasta is great with alfredo sauce, but how do we make a lower-calorie and dairy-free pasta sauce. The answer is an updated white sauce! It is a great base and can be seasoned with onions, garlic, parsley, pesto, little parmesan, bacon bits, and the list goes on.
WHITE SAUCE (2 Servings - double for family)
1 cup rice milk
2 TBS rice flour
1 TBS butter
1 TBS sunflower oil
Seasonings and herbs of choice (salt, pepper, garlic, pesto, ...)
Combine all ingredients including the seasonings in a sauce pan and heat on high until it begins to boil. Reduce heat to a simmer until the sauce thickens.
Add your cooked chicken or shrimp, broccoli...Enjoy.
