Pasta with Black Olive Cream Sauce

Description

Penne with a Black Olive Cream SauceThis was a surprise! I don't usually think of olives and cream together, but this was delicious, and really easy. 

For the olives, get good tender Kalamata or Gaeta olives in a jar or from the deli counter, not those woody little horrors that come in a can.

This is usually made with penne, but any short pasta will do. 

Yield
4 Servings
Preparation time
15 minutes
Ingredients
1 lb Short Pasta
3⁄4 c Heavy Cream
1 1⁄4 c Pitted Black Olives (chopped)
1⁄3 c Parmesan Cheese (freshly grated)
Instructions
  1. Boil the pasta according to the package instructions.
  2. In a saucepan, heat the cream and the olives until quite hot.
  3. When the pasta is done, mix it in a large bowl with the cream and olives and the Parmesan.
  4. Serve immediately.
