Ingredients

  • 1/2 stick butter
  • 1/2- 1 t minced garlic
  • 4 scallions (or 1 small-med onion), chopped
  • 2 C milk (1% is fine)
  • 4 oz cream cheese (the real thing, not reduced fat)
  • 1 C sour cream (the real thing, not reduced fat)
  • 1/2 C white wine (anything on your kitchen shelf)
  • 4 T corn starch (approx)
  • 1/2 t garlic salt
  • 1 t cracked pepper
  • Sprinkle of dill

Directions

Melt butter in medium size sauce pan. On low heat, add spices, garlic and chopped or minced onion. Simmer on low until onions are transluscent. Add 1/2 C white wine. Mix 4 T of corn starch with 2 C milk and slowly add mixture to sauce pan. Raise heat to medium and stir often until thoroughly heated and beginning to thicken. Add 4 oz of cream cheese and 1 C sour cream. Cook on medium heat until beginning to boil. All the good stuff should melt down and the texture should be creamy. If too runny, add 1 t corn starch to 1/2 milk and slowly stir in until it reaches desired thickness.Pour over linquine (spinach is great!) and sprinkle parmesan or romano cheese over the top.This is great with a red wine (merlot or pinot noir) and a big salad! Enjoy!
