Low Fat Cheesy Pasta

I adapted this from a similar recipe on recipezaar to suit my low fat diet needs. this is a great base recipe or even great on it's own! you can put virtually anything in this and it's fun to play around with the cheese too...sometimes i sue a parmesan and fontina blend to give it a little bit of a different flavor. i prefer to use barilla plus pasta for this. i love the lightness of this cheese sauce, it's a great alternative to alfredo!!

Steps

Cook box of penne per package directions and keep warm.
Mince garlic and saut in butter / olive oil blend until garlic is slightly golden.
Add broth and milk.
Add 3 tsp flour , salt / pepper to taste.
Simmer and stir constantly until sauce thickens.
Pour over warm pasta , coat and enjoy !.
You can put anything in this , chicken , broccoli , any vegetables -- play with it ! have fun with it !.
