FARFALLE WITH CREAMY PESTO
Not sure where this came from originally but I love it! I used low-fat cottage cheese and sour cream. The pesto sauce would also be great as a sauce for chicken. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did :-)

Lovely and rich, this is a family favorite at my house. I typically serve it with grilled chicken breast, but the picture shows sliced rib eye.

Steps:
- 1. Boil pasta according to package directions.
- 2. While pasta is cooking, heat butter over medium heat in a heavy saute pan. Add garlic and cook until lightly golden and fragrant. Don't turn your heat up too high, or your garlic will become bitter.

- 4. Add cream and milk, stirring constantly. Whisk until all lumps are gone.
- 5. Add salt and fresh ground pepper to taste. Now you have a basic bechamel sauce.
- 6. Continue to simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently. Reduce the sauce until the thickness is to your liking.
- 7. When sauce has thickened, remove from heat and add pesto, stirring well. Serve over hot pasta.

Steps:
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Toast hazelnuts, shaking skillet often, until golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook broccoli in boiling water until tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a colander with a slotted spoon. Bring water back to a boil and add farfalle; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes.
- Meanwhile, roughly chop cooled hazelnuts. Place hazelnuts, broccoli, parsley, mint, 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a food processor. Puree until smooth. Season pesto with salt and pepper.
- Drain farfalle, reserving 1/4 cup cooking water. Toss farfalle with pesto, reserved cooking water, and capers until well coated.
