Cooking With L: October 2022
Mrs. L with parmesan ingredients
This Fettuccine Alfredo is a yumtastic entree to eat on a chilly night. It’s such a simple recipe!
You will need…
- 8-oz fettuccine (uncooked)
- ½ cup of heavy cream
- ¼ cup of butter
- ¼ cup of grated parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
- In a stockpot bring water to boil. Add pasta (with a pinch of salt) and cook until al dente (don’t recover the pot once you add the pasta.)
- When pasta is almost done cooking, begin your sauce. In a 2 qt saucepan completely melt the butter on medium heat, slowly stir in the heavy cream and then add the parmesan cheese.
- Drain the pasta, put back into the stockpot and add the alfredo sauce. Stir to evenly coat the pasta.
- Add salt, pepper, and additional parmesan cheese to taste.
- Enjoy!

L’s Tips:
*If I was making this for dinner I would double the recipe, using a pound of pasta. This would give you four dinner servings.
*You can use any type of pasta you would like: tortellini or penne work great! This is a basic recipe, think outside the box. I often add sautéed chicken breast and broccoli seasoned with garlic and crushed pepper. This recipe is great with all types of sautéed vegetables as well.
