Alfredo

I believe that some of the best dishes have 5 or fewer ingredients in them.  This is one of those that proves it is simplicity delicious!

Makes:  about 1-1/4 cups, enough for 1 pound of pasta (4 to 6 servings)

Ingredients:

1 cu. heavy cream
1/4 c. butter, unsalted
pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 c. freshly grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instruction:

In a small sauce pan, combine the cream, butter, and nutmeg and bring to a boil.  Reduce heat to medium, and add the Parmesan, season with the salt and black pepper, and cook just until melted.  This sauce is best used right away.

Note:  serving this with freshly made pasta makes all the difference.
