    Yes, you could definitely use fat free cream! You might just have to use a bit more to get the right creaminess. : )

    You’re very right. Add cream and vodka and of course you’ll get something delicious! Thanks for sharing this yummy pasta recipe. I was planning on making http://www.recipe4living.com/recipes/creamy_pasta_with_summer_vegetables.htm tonight, but I think I’ll save that for another time. I’m going to go for yours.
