Basic White Sauce
We use this Basic White Sauce recipe as a base for most of our white sauces for pasta.
It's simple, and very versatile. You can add any kind of sauteed veggies you want. (We like zucchini, onions, and mushrooms). You meat lovers can add chicken or shrimp. Add some fresh parsley, or oregano for flavor. Sprinkle some fresh Parmesan cheese on top.
And you can put it on top of any pasta you like. (Use cheese filled ravioli if you really feel decadent.)
Basic White Sauce
- 2 Tbsp. Real Butter
- 2 Tbsp. Whole Wheat Flour
- 1/4 tsp. Salt
- 1 cup Whole Milk
In a saucepan melt the butter. Stir in the flour, salt, and a little pepper. Add the mild gradually and stir. Cook over medium heat until thickened, stirring constantly.
Note: We usually double the recipe depending on how many people we are feeding. We use whole wheat flour, and we honestly can't tell the difference, and neither can the kids.
