Quick Alfredo Pasta With Vegetables - cooking recipe

Ingredients

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

Preparation

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.
