Homemade Butter Sauce

My stomach has been really senstive to tomato sauce lately. I guess the baby just doesn't like it. Well, I wanted something easy and quick to make for dinner tonight (since I'm exhausted and Tim gets off at 6). I ALWAYS have all the ingreadients for pasta. However, tomato sauce just did not sound that appetizing to me. I googled (is that a word now?) for simple butter pasta sauces and found this one that I adapted. This recipe will make enough sauce for a 4-6 serving of pasta and some leftover for garlic bread spread if you feel so inclined. :)

Ingredients:

1 1/3 c. of butter (margarine will do - that's what I used)
4 cloves of garlic (minced, or use a garlic press)
2 tbs. oregano
3 tbs. dried basil

Directions:

• Melt butter on medium low in a saucepan.
• Add garlic and cook on medium for 5 minutes.
• Reduce heat to low and add oregano and basil. Stir.
• Keep on lowest heat until ready to serve.

It tastes great on pasta. You can also use it as a spread for garlic bread. I mixed my bow-tie pasta with the sauce and served some broiled tilapia and shrimp on the side. Very Yummy!
