So once again dinner time was rolling around and the parental units tell me it’s a “forage whatever you want from the ‘fridge” night. Of course I interpret this as “look around at what we have in the ‘fridge and pantry and then make something yummy.” Of course that’s what I then did.
I’d come across this recipe in my internet travels probably a few months ago but never really thought to try it until I found a giant wedge of Parmesan cheese in in the kitchen this evening. I don’t know if I would say it’s the best ever, maybe a little strong on the cheese flavor so next time I’ll use a little less, or a fresher parm.

As you can see I made some garlicky steamed veggies to go along with it. This was a good recipe, very very simple and easy to follow. The end results were good and all who had it seemed to like it well enough. The only thing about this that I wasn’t crazy about was that it was juuust a little too buttery for my taste, but then alfredo is supposed to be heavy.
Suggestions / Changes
As I previously mentioned, next time I’ll use a bit less butter than the recipe indicates. Also I will make sure to use fresher cheese to avoid SUCH a strong flavor. I also think this could be great with a little garlic added in or some fresh broccoli cooked into it. Just some ideas!
An aerial view! Yum.
