Light Cream Sauce for Pasta

Serves 4

Ingredients:

Directions:

1. In a small saucepan, over medium-high heat, add the vegetable broth and Neufchatel cheese.
2. Stir until the cheese is melted and combined well with the broth. Stir in the lemon juice.
3. Turn the sauce down to low heat and stir occasionally.
4. In a saute pan, drizzle the olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the peas. Stir the peas so that they don't burn and keep on the heat for 2 to 3 minutes.

8. Add the pea and corn mixture to the sauce and stir to combine.
9. Season with the kosher salt and white pepper.
