Yield: 4 servings and is DELICIOUS and EASY!

- 2 tablespoons cream

Notes
I used fettuccine for this. It is best prepared just before serving. I do not advise freezing or microwaving this.
We love Parmesan cheese here, so do by all means shave a little over the dish just before serving if desired.
