The next challenge was to use what I had on hand to serve as sides. I went waaaay back to my childhood and made buttered noodles. This is just a package of egg noddles, one stick of butter, and 1 cup of Italian dried bread crumbs. Boil the noodles, drain, melt butter in pan, toss noodles with butter and bread crumbs. That's it. Add salt and pepper and you've got a cheap flavorful side dish. Add some frozen asparagus and we have ourselves a five star meal!
Your gonna LOVE this one!
