Not on Coumadin? Here’s the standard Blue Cheese Crab and Fusilli Pasta.

Ingredients

1 Tbsp. Olive oil
1 large White onions
1 fluid ounces White wine
4 fluid ounces Water
1/2 100 grams Low sodium chicken or vegetable stock
1/2 tsp. Lemon zest
1 ounce Blue cheese
128 fluid ounces Water
1 cup grated Carrots, raw
4 ounce Whole wheat Fusilli
8 ounce Crabmeat

Instructions

Place the olive oil in a medium sized stainless steel sauce pan over medium heat. Add the onion. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 10 minutes. Do not let the onions brown.

As the onions begin to turn a shiny milky white color, add the white wine, water, chicken stock, salt and lemon zest.

Cook for about 15 minutes, until the onions are softened. Use a blender or stick blender and puree until smooth. Return the sauce to the pan and add the blue cheese. Reduce the heat to very low and stir until the cheese melts and the sauce is smooth.

Place the water in a large sauce pan over high heat and bring to a boil. Add the matchstick carrots and cook for about 3 minutes until slightly tender. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel.

While the water is still boiling, add the pasta. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 - 12 minutes until the pasta is tender.

While the pasta is cooking add the crabmeat to the sauce and reheat gently.

When the pasta is done, drain thoroughly and add to the sauce. Toss together with the carrots and serve.
