Creamy vegetable pasta.

This recipe is from allrecipes.com but I have changed it to be low salt and with more vegetables.

Ingredients:
  • 225g of cooked pasta
  • 1 cup broccoli
  • 1 cup zucchini + carrot (or other vegetables of your choice)
  • 2 tablespoons butter (no added salt)
  • 2 tablespoons plain flour
  • 2 cups of skim milk
  • 2/3 cup of no added salt cottage or ricotta chese
  • ground black pepper
Directions:
  1. Place vegetables in a steamer and cook until tender but firm.
  2. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Gradually add milk, stir until blended. Cook for 15 minutes or until thick, stirring constantly. Stir in ricotta or cottage cheese and pepper. Cook 5 minutes or until cheese melts. Stir in steamed vegetables and cooked pasta
