Mmm....Cream Sauces

It's not often that I find myself with leftover cream that needs to be used up before it expires. Well, thanks to Canada Day, I was able to make two delicious sauces with the cream left from my strawberry shortcake experiment.

Yesterday, I made a simple alfredo sauce. All I can say is that cream makes a world of difference in the richness of sauces. By the end, I was almost sick of what I was eating....

Today, I got a little more fancy: Sole filets simmered in a herb cream sauce on a bed of roasted potatoes.

It was mighty tasty, but did have a strong flavour (a bit too much salt, perhaps?). Now I'm just hoping I have leftover cream more often.
