Hello

I made this blog because I am constantly coming up with cheap dishes that taste delicious. They may not always look the greatest but they definitely taste good. I cook based upon what is in my fridge.
To start things off, here is a simple recipe for Fettucine Alfredo. This is not one of my inventions... I stole this one from my mom. But I loved this dish growing up and I'm sure you will enjoy it also. If you are an athlete in need of energy or simply a person who wants to clog some arteries... this is your meal.

Fettucine Alfredo

.5 lb fettucine noodles
1 pint heavy cream
1 stick of butter
salt
pepper
nutmeg
parmesan cheese

Get this meal started by filling a large pot with water and bringing it to a boil.(add salt to water)

In a sauce-pan add the heavy cream and butter over medium heat. Let the the cream reduce by a fourth.... not too much or this sauce with be like sludge. Stir constantly Salt and pepper to taste. Add a generous sprinkle of nutmeg and stir.

Cook noodles in boiling water. Do not overcook.
Add noodles to sauce-pan and toss with alfredo sauce. Begin to sprinkle parmesan cheese as you are tossing the noodles. Add cheese to taste.....usually about a cup.

This meal is tasty.... but be warned, it will go straight to your hips.
This fettucine alfredo can be easily modified. I love adding slices of grilled chicken breast or brocolli or both. This sauce is also very good with mushrooms although the color of the sauce changes when the mushrooms are cooked in the sauce. (Great flavor though)
Enjoy.
