Penne with Gorgonzola

Both kids and adults enjoy this pasta, it is rich and creamy. Gorgonzola has a bit of a blue cheese taste but the quality is much better. Get your kids involved, they will love it.

Ingredients:

300 grams of quality gorgonzola cheese
1 cup and a half of medium fat cream
700 grams of penne rigate
Salt and white pepper to taste (be careful with the salt as the cheese can be already salty enough)

Place a frying pan on low heat, chop up the gorgonzola cheese into 1 inch cubes and put it in the frying pan with the cream and let the cheese melt down completely. Add some white pepper to taste. Now that your sauce is ready you can bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the penne according to the directions on the package. After the pasta is cooked strain it and place it back into the pot in which you cooked the pasta, then pour in the sauce, stir until all the pasta is coated and serve immediately.

Note: You can also serve this topped with parmesan cheese.

Serves 4
