¼ cup greek yogurt

1 cup milk (skim or whole)

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Directions

In a sauté pan, add extra virgin olive oil, onions and garlic. Sauté over low heat until soft and translucent.

Once cooked, gradually add in flour, salt and pepper until a thick paste starts to form.

Stir in greek yogurt and gradually add milk, about a ½ cup at a time, whisk until the sauce becomes thick and creamy.

Once you’ve added all the milk, gradually add both cheeses and chicken broth, stirring constantly until a thick sauce forms.

Serve over pasta or save in a jar! This is enough sauce for 1 pound of pasta.
