So I was really apprehensive about trying this product because I wasn’t really sure what it was. Quest’s Spinach Fettuccine Pasta is a zero-calorie pasta…yup, ZERO calories! Overall, I think the taste was good–it tasted like regular pasta to me. And because it has essentially no calories, it loans itself to being more forgiving in terms of using creamier sauces!
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest (optional)
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1 cup low-fat milk
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons low-fat cream cheese
grated parmesan cheese, to your taste and preferred level of creaminess
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Freshly ground pepper
Â
Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and lemon zest and cook until the garlic is slightly soft, about 1 minute. Add in the flour and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon,1 minute. Whisk in the milk and 3/4 teaspoon salt and cook, whisking constantly, until just thickened, about 3 minutes. Add the cheeses; whisk until melted, about 1 minute. Stir in the chopped parsley.
