Ingredients




1/2 pound Fettuccine, cooked
2 tablespoons butter
 cup milk
1/4 cup heavy (whipping) cream
4 ounces Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup Romano (or Parmesan) cheese
3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 ounce pine nuts, lightly chopped
pepper

Preparation

1 While the fettuccine is cooking, melt butter in a large frying pan over low heat. 2 Add milk and cream, stir to combine. 3 When warm, add Gorgonzola crumbles and stir until melted and combined. 4 Add Romano cheese, bacon, pine nuts and pepper to taste. 5 No salt, the bacon will take care of that. 6 Drain the pasta well, then add it to the sauce in the frying pan. Mix well to coat pasta. 7 Serve with Italian bread and Parmesan cheese if desired.

About


We had this last night and the flavor was good, (I love blue cheese) but the dish is a little heavy.  Next time I would definately serve it with a simple side salad of lettuce and tomato, just to lighten the meal.
