Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups water
  • 3 1/2 Cups Egg Noodles
  • 1 8 ounce package cream cheese
  • 4 Roma tomatoes or other tomato of your liking
  • 5 cloves garlic
  • 1 Pinch Salt
  • 1 Pinch Pepper
  • 1 Pinch basil or parsley optional

Method
 

  1. Boil water in a two-quart saucepan. Meanwhile, slice tomatoes and garlic.
  2. Add egg noodles to boiling water. Cook until tender; drain and set aside.
  3. Cook garlic and tomatoes in a one-quart saucepan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Fold and chop in cream cheese. Keep stirring; add salt and pepper.
  5. Mix well, then reduce to a simmer. Pour sauce over noodles in the two-quart saucepan; mix well.
  6. Top with parsley or basil if desired.

Notes

If you are dairy sensitive, switch to a Neufchâtel or Vegan cream cheese. To add protein, you can add a cooked meat of your choice, such as chicken or salmon. To make cleanup easier, soak your one-quart saucepan in a little water immediately after pouring the cream cheese mixture over the noodles.
Total time: 40 minutes.
