pasta alfredo

2 servings, 9 points each

5 oz linguine
1 small onion, finely diced
2 garlic cloves, finely diced or crushed
6 T broth (i used home made chicken stock)
1/2 cup fat-free evaporated milk
1 1/2 oz canadian bacon, chopped (i plan to try small amounts of browned turkey sausage, or ground turkey instead)
3/4 oz grated parmesan cheese
pepper to taste (about 1/8 t)
1 t water
1 t cornstarch
2T chopped chives

cook pasta until tender, and drain.

saute onion and garlic, until onion is soft. stir in broth and milk. bring to a boil. mix cornstarch and cool/cold water together, and stir in. simmer, uncovered, until thickened slightly, about 5 minutes.

add pasta and cheese to sauce, stirring, until cheese is melted, about 2 minutes.

serve pasta sprinkled with bacon (meat), chives, and pepper.
