So this time, I omitted all of the butter, used regular half and half instead of heavy cream, cut the parmesan to 1/2 cup, upped the pesto to 2/3 cup, and added about 2 tablespoons of dried basil (I would have loved to use fresh basil, but didn't have any :( - if using fresh, you should use 1/3 cup). This brought the fat down to a mere 13 grams of fat per serving. That's something I can handle!! Others had mentioned the sauce being too thing when using half and half, but mine was REALLY thick! The key may be to simmer it a bit longer on medium-low heat. Still needs more basil in my opinion, but I think using fresh as opposed to dried would do the trick!! Was this review helpful? [ YES ]
226 users found this review helpful This is the second time I've made this recipe. The first time, I followed the recipe exactly... Want a lighter, more colorful version? - Use 2 cups half-and-half - Use 1/3 cup parmesan - Prep a diced green pepper or red pepper, or any fave veggies (aparagus, broccoli, mushrooms) ahead of time Throw the veggies in about three minutes before you add the parmesan (later than that, if you have already-tender veggies). Let it cook. If the sauce is thinnish, get a drinking glass, add 1/2 cup water and a tablespoon of corn starch (no fat!), stir, and stir into the dish once the mixture is dissolved.
