The older two kiddos have been wanting to help out in the kitchen… and are wanting to branch out from the hot dog/chicken nugget/ frozen pizza menu that they can cook when we are gone. This desire resulted in a trip the base library and the search for some “kid friendly” cook books.
Well, we scored BIG with this one… “Cool Italian Cooking” – fun tasty recipes for kids!
Eli’s first choice was for Fettuccine Alfredo – and we are all hooked!
2 TBS Butter
2 cups whipping cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 tsp grd pepper
1/8 tsp nutmeg
8 ounces cooked noodles (really the recipe calls for fettuccine noodles, but we only had rigitoni on hand!)
There were a few adaptations made (he cooks like me… LOL) but I have typed the recipe above as he made it with the ingredients he used, not as it is written in the book!
Heat the butter in the skillet over medium high heat. When the butter is melted, turn down the heat and add cream, cheese, pepper and nutmeg. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly. Serve over your cooked noodles with a loaf of crusty bread!
