Ingredients
- 4 teaspoons all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup nonfat milk, divided
- 1/4 cup low-fat cottage cheese
- 1/4 cup shredded Swiss cheese, preferably Gruyère
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon white pepper
- 2 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan cheese, (optional)
- 1 tablespoon breadcrumbs, (optional)
Cooking Directions
Step 1
Stir flour and 2 tablespoons milk in a small bowl to make a smooth paste. Heat the remaining milk in a small heavy saucepan over medium heat until steaming. Whisk the flour paste into the hot milk and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and whisk in cottage cheese, Swiss cheese, salt and white pepper. Transfer the sauce to a food processor or blender and puree until smooth. Serve over steamed vegetables and top with Parmesan and breadcrumbs, if desired.
