Garlic Ranch Pasta (Ww) image

This is written as a Weight Watchers recipe but is easily adaptable to full fat ingredients and tastes good either way! It's not meant to be a complicated, balanced meal but a quick, tasty supper dish that goes well with just about anything. I like the flavour of garlic to be quite strong so feel free to use less if you do not.

Time 15m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups dry pasta (shells work well)
1 tablespoon low-fat butter
3 -4 garlic cloves, crushed (or less to your taste)
3/4 cup low-fat ranch dressing
3/4 cup fat free sour cream
salt and pepper, to taste
fresh grated parmesan cheese (optional topping)

Steps:

  • Cook the pasta according to the package directions.
  • A few minutes before the pasta finishes cooking, melt the butter in a non-stick skillet.
  • Crush the garlic into the pan and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Make sure the garlic and butter are mixed together so the garlic does not burn.
  • Add the ranch dressing, sour cream and salt and pepper.
  • Over a low-medium heat, warm the sauce gently, stirring occasionally.
  • When the pasta is cooked, mix it with the sauce and serve hot.
  • Top with parmesan cheese if you have the points to spare!
