Help?
I like Reesha's recipe. Mine tends to be more classic so its heavy. Classic Bechamel sauce as the base.

I also like herbed sauce. French Tarragon cream sauce comes to mind.

Add about a tablespoon of finely chopped French tarragon to about a cup of cream sauce and gently cook. Do not substitute other kinds of tarragon. Fresh one is better.

Grill some low fat fish halibut/cod or chicken breast. Slice the fish/chicken and toss with farafalle and the tarragon cream sauce. Carbonera sauce will work very well.

keep it simple and try it first (days) before your guests arrive.
