Quick Alfredo Pasta With Vegetables
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1/3 cup parmesan cheese
- 1 pinch garlic powder
- 1 pinch onion salt
- 250 g pasta
- Cut vegetables into bite size pieces and steam if not already cooked (or saute sliced mushrooms in butter with a pinch of salt).
- Place large pot of salted water on to boil. When it boils, cook your favourite pasta according to directions. Drain.
- Meanwhile, while waiting for the water to boil, melt butter in a small pot on medium low heat. Add flour and stir. Keep stiring until the flour starts to brown a little, about 3 or 4 minutes. Add milk, two or three tablespoons at a time and mix quickly. As it thickens and becomes smooth, add a little more. Keep doing this until all milk is used. Add more than 1 cup if needed. Add parmesan, garlic powder and onion salt, stirring frequently as the parmesan melts.
- By this time your pasta should be cooked and just drained. Toss pasta onto a plate or into a bowl, top with warm vegetables and drizzle with cheese sauce.
- Garnish with a little chopped parsley if desired.
