Creamy Ham, Garlic and Soft Cheese Pasta Ribbons

Serves 1

Core recipe

Points per serving: 5

60g tomato & spinach tagliatelle

60g low fat soft cheese with garlic & herbs (eg Philly EXTRA light)

salt & pepper

15g lean ham, cut into strips

tbsp skimmed milk.

Cook the pasta.

Meanwhile, stir the cheese and milk in a pan until smooth.  Heat gently and stir in the ham. 

Drain the pasta and add it to the cheese and ham mixture and toss thoroughly.  Warm through and serve with plenty of veg.

Note:

This is nice with frozen peas added (defrost first) ,  if on the points plan,  count the extra points for the peas.

Also nice made with prawns or smoked salmon instead of ham. (adjust points as necessary)
