Baked Goat Cheese & Herb Pasta

I love goat cheese. This is lighter than regular mac and cheese, and way tastier.

1. boil pasta [penne, macaroni, farfalle, wagon wheels, rotini, etc] and drain.

2. heat oven to 400 F.

3. mix together 1/4 cup sour cream, 3 tablespoons crumbled creamy goat cheese, 1 or 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon skim milk. add a pinch of flour or so to thicken. 

4. toss with pasta. [you can add broccoli, tomatoes, asparagus, or beans for some vegetable-y goodness.]

5. place in greased or papered baking dish, top with fresh basil OR fresh parsley, a bit of parmesan, crushed saltine crackers, a bit more black pepper. 

6. bake for 30 minutes or so until top is slightly browned.
