Lemon Noodles

1 pound spaghetti
1/4 pound butter
1 pint sour cream
juice of one juicy lemon
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup minced parsley
Parmesan cheese, to taste

          Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Cook the noodles in boiling water; drain and put into a baking dish.  Melt butter in a small sauce pan; remove from heat.  Stir in sour cream, lemon juice, and lemon peel.  Pour over pasta, toss and bake 20-25 minutes.  Remove from oven, sprinkle on lots of freshly ground pepper, minced parsley, and Parmesan cheese.  Toss and eat.

TIM'S NOTES:  The recipe says these would be a good side dish for fish.  I think they would be.  I am not a big fan of spaghetti, and wondering if these could be made with another shape of pasta? Since I used gluten free pasta, my choices are limited, but I would like to try this next time with another kind of pasta.  I am also wondering if you couldn't use feta cheese instead of the Parmesan?  I think feta would go well with the lemon.
