There's lots of garlic flavor in this filling side dish. I like it with grilled chicken but it works wonderfully with nearly any menu.—Brenda Nolen, Folsom, Louisiana

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces uncooked thin spaghetti
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 tablespoons butter, divided
  • 6 ounces fat-free cream cheese, cubed
  • 3 tablespoons reduced-fat sour cream

  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
  • 4-1/2 teaspoons minced fresh parsley
