LINGUINE WITH LIGHT CLAM SAUCE
This is, by far, one of the best "light" recipes I have come across in all the years I have been cooking....I found this way back in the "80's and am still using this favorite. This extremely versatile recipe is on my "go to list" when I need something fast, easy and tasty! I make sure that I am always stocked with clams in the cupboard and cream cheese in my fridge/freezer. This recipe is also handy for cleaning out all those little "its and bits" of vegetables. Don't use too much mushrooms or it will give a "grey" appearance to the dish
