Easy Microwave Creamy Alfredo Sauce

1. In a 1 quart dish, micro-cook cream and butter at high for 2-3 minutes or until very hot. Stir in parmesan cheese and pepper and toss with hot cooked pasta.

2. I usually top with fresh parsley to dress it up.

3. Variations: Mushrooms, tomatoes, broccoli, shrimp and/or chicken can all be added but must be cooked before hand.
