Buttered Herb Noodles

This is a super quick and easy pasta side dish that goes with almost anything. If you need a simple starch to round out your meal, this goes great with pork, chicken, fish, you name it.


Just some great simple flavors at work. 


This recipe is really just a basic starting point. I don't measure anything for this, just sort of eyeball it. It's easy to make larger or smaller amounts, using this as a starting point. I've also used dried parsley instead of fresh, and swapped feta cheese for the parmesan. I'm sure there are quite a lot of great variations that could be made from this!

Buttered Noodles
From: Taste of Home
Serves: 4 (as a side dish)

You'll need:
2 1/4 c uncooked egg noodles
2 T butter, melted
2 T grated Parmesan cheese
2 t minced fresh parsley (or about 3/4 t dried)
1/4 t salt
1/4 t garlic powder
1/8 t pepper
1/4 c shredded mozzarella cheese

Cook the egg noodles according to the package directions.


While the pasta is boiling, melt your butter and chop the parsley. Drain the pasta and transfer to a serving bowl. Pour in the melted butter and stir to coat.


Add all the remaining ingredients EXCEPT the mozzarella...


... and mix well. Finally, grab a small handful of mozzarella....


... and stir it in and watch it melt.


Enjoy!
