Walnut Cream Pasta

[Guest guest]

This was very easy, and the addition of the chopped walnuts added a

wonderful texture; you could probably use any type of nut you prefer.

 

Also, I did lighten it up a bit to fit my taste. I used half and half

cream instead

of full-on whipping cream AND I used light sour cream in place of the

regular

sour cream. It was plenty creamy enough doing that for me, and I

didn't feel

as guilty; not that I am big on food guilt anyway. *lol*

1/8 tsp pepper
