Buttered Penne Pasta with Parmesan Cheese

4 Easy Ingredients in this Kid Friendly Recipe

One of my girls' favorite things to eat is Buttered Penne Pasta with Parmesan Cheese...or as they call it, Buttered Noodles! I always make at least a box, but usually two boxes at a time, so I have them ready to reheat whenever needed. They are super simple, and I don't know a kid (or grown-up) who wouldn't love them!

Here are the ingredients and steps to create the Buttered Penne Pasta with Parmesan Cheese:

RECIPE INGREDIENTS:

• 1 Box of Penne Pasta

• Parmesan Cheese (grated or shredded)

• Garlic Powder

• 4 tbsp Butter (half a stick)

STEP 1: BOIL WATER

Fill your pot with water and bring to a boil.

STEP 2: COOK & DRAIN PASTA

Dump in the entire box of pasta (you can add a little salt to help prevent the pasta noodles from sticking together). Cover with a lid until the water is boiling. Uncover and let boil for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Drain the water from the pasta.

STEP 3: MIX IN BUTTER

Add half a stick of butter (more or less if preferred), and let melt. Stir the pasta.

STEP 4: TOP WITH CHEESE & SERVE

Plate the pasta. Top with grated or shredded parmesan and serve.
