Sage Cream Sauce

This sage cream sauce is an herby béchamel or cream sauce that goes great with pasta, meatballs or whatever you love cream sauce with.

It’s rich and delicious and fairly simple to make. It comes together in just about 15 minutes prep to finish.

I use ground sage in this recipe but you can also use rubbed sage if that is what you have or fresh sage too. If using fresh sage quadruple the amount called for, so instead of 1 teaspoon dried ground sage use 4 teaspoons or 1 heaping tablespoon chopped fresh sage.

We love this sauce over my Pork sausage meatballs RECIPE HERE with some sauteed kale and egg noodles which is what is pictured on this post.
