A simple dish that tastes great, time after time. Kids love it and it obviously makes a great side dish as well. It's really worth going to the store and picking up some real parmesan cheese. The jar stuff just won't do...
1 pkg. linguine or similar pasta
1/2 stick of butter (soft or melted)
1 cup of shaved parmesan cheese
(reserve a 1/2 cup of pasta water after boiling)
Boil the pasta per the package instructions. In the bowl you'll use for the pasta after cooking, place the melted butter in the bottom of the dish. Use a micro-planer or shredder for the cheese and place it on the pasta once it's transferred to the bowl. Before mixing the three ingredients together, place the pasta water you reserved into the dish, then mix. Serve immediately
I tried this recipe for my grandkids and you are right,fresh Parmesan cheese makes a big difference!
