This is one of my family’s favorite side dishes.  When I make them, I get a yeah.  The Wee One especially loves it when I serve either corn, peas, or mixed veggies with it because he will mix the veggies with the noodles.  His dad also mixes his veggies with his rice and noodles so he comes upon it naturally.

It’s as simple as boiling up some noodles and then adding butter, cheese, and parsley.

Buttered Noodles

Stars of the recipe:

• 1/2 lb. of egg noodles (We use wide.)
• salt

3. Place the noodles back in the pot.
4. Add the butter, cheese, parsley, and cooking water.  Stir until the butter and cheese are melted.
