Ingredients
¼ pound Whole wheat pasta
1 cup Shredded asiago aged cheese
2 tablespoon Butter
1½ cup Whole milk
1 cup Water
1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped
3 tablespoon Garlic salt
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Add the whole wheat pasta to a large pot or deep skillet and arrange the butter on top of the noodles.
Pour the milk and water over the pasta and butter. Sprinkle the garlic salt over the mixture.
Place the pot over high heat and bring to a boil, stirring frequently to prevent the pasta from sticking.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and continue to stir the pasta regularly, breaking it apart as it softens.
Cook for approximately 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed, leaving a creamy sauce.
Remove from heat and stir in the shredded asiago cheese until fully melted and combined.
Mix in the fresh chopped parsley and season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
Divide between two bowls and serve immediately. Optional: top with additional shredded asiago cheese if desired.
Comments
This is a straightforward pasta dish with solid availability at any Charlotte grocery chain—all ingredients are shelf-stable staples or dairy case basics, no special stops required. The cost per serving lands around $2–$2.50 depending on asiago quality, making it weeknight-friendly. The stated 15 minutes is honest if you're boiling pasta simultaneously with the sauce, though realistically you're looking at 18–20 minutes once you account for water heating and cheese melting, and the cream sauce demands a bit of attention to avoid breaking. It reheats adequately in a microwave or low oven, making it reasonable for a small household or quick solo dinner.
