INGREDIENTS:
1 tablespoon butter 1 tablespoon flour 3/4 cup heavy cream
salt and pepper to taste pinch of nutmeg 1 pound pasta
2 cloves garlic, sliced thin 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 zucchini, sliced thin
1 pound cooked turkey, cubed fresh-grated Parmesan or Romano cheese



1 Prepare the roux by heating the butter in a small saucepan and adding the four. Over medium heat, stir until the flour just begins to turn a very light brown. In another pan heat the cream. When it is hot, add the roux to the cream, stirring carefully until the sauce is thickened. Add the salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Remove from the heat.
2 Cook the pasta. Drain when finished.
3 Saute the garlic in the olive oil until just lightly browned. Add the zucchini and the turkey, and saute until all is hot. Add a bit of pepper to taste.
4 Toss the turkey and zucchini with pasta, and add the sauce. Top with Parmesan or Romano cheese.
