Fettuccine Elegante

Ingredients
Fettuccine (our family of 10 uses 2 boxes)
Steam Fresh Veggies (w/Carrots, Cauliflower and Broccoli)  (we use 2 bags)
Alfredo Sauce (we use 2 cans)
Salt, Parsley, and Oregano for seasoning

Time:  approximately 15 minutes for prep and cook time together.

This meal is another one that is so easy that our babies can almost do it all themselves.


 So you'll start with a pot of boiling water.
 Pour in your box of pasta and stir it up.
   Boil for about 10-12 minutes, then drain it.  While the pasta is cooking, throw in your bags of Steam Fresh Veggies.  They cook in the microwave for just 5 minutes.  Now you of course do not have to use these bags.  You could totally buy these veggies fresh and separate and cook them yourself.  We are just going for speed and convenience here.  Which for me at times is well worth the extra little $.
 Sam putting his bag in.  He LOVES doing this!
 When the pasta is all drained, pour in your Alfredo sauce.
 After the sauce is poured in, stir it all up.
 Pour in your veggies next.

 Then season the way you want!  
 We sprinkled in a little Parsley, Oregano and salt.  We just eyeballed it.

 Seasoning is so fun for these guys!  And it turned out yummy!
You'll stir it up one more time and you're done!   Here's how our finished product looked.
 Interestingly enough, the veggies with the sauce and seasoning were yummy enough for Sam, who is a major pasta lover, to pick those out and eat first.  Success!
