Time 55m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup pine nuts (I'm a pine nut fan, so I usually add a bit more!)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups whipping cream
1 cup Roquefort cheese, crumbled
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, cubed
1 (16 ounce) package fettuccine
1 (10 ounce) package fresh spinach, torn
7 ounces prosciutto, thinly sliced
1/8 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Cook pine nuts in hot oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, 3 to 4 minutes or until lightly browned; set aside.
  • Combine whipping cream and cheeses in a heavy saucepan; cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until smooth. Set the sauce aside, keeping it warm.
  • While heating the cheeses, cook the pasta according to package directions. Set aside and keep warm.
  • Tear the spinach and slice the prosciutto into strips. Combine the spinach, prosciutto, parsley and salt in a large bowl; add the pasta, and toss gently. Pour the cheese sauce over the pasta mixture, and toss until coated.
  • Spoon into a greased 13x9x2 inch baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 375 degrees for 15 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Sprinkle with toasted pine nuts.
