 3 C (or 1/2 lb) Pasta of your Choice

When boiling, add in pasta and cook according to instructions. When pasta is ready, remove from pot and drain. Make sure to keep pasta water. Add pasta back into the pot. Set to low heat.

3

Add in olive oil, milk, grass fed butter and lemon juice. Mix well with the pasta till the butter melts.

Add in cheese (ricotta or farmer cheese) and pasta water. Mix
even more. You want it be evenly spread out with the noodles. If it is too thick, add more pasta water.
