Directions

  1. Cook the pasta according to the package directions and drain.
  2. Meanwhile, in a food processor (or blender container), combine the cottage cheese, roasted peppers, and Parmesan cheese. Cover and process for 30 to 45 seconds or until smooth. Set aside.
  3. In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the garlic. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in the flour and pepper, and then stir in the skim milk. Bring the mixture to a boil. Remove from the heat and cool for 1 minute, stirring frequently.
