my mother and i went to trader joe's this evening and we ended up in front of the noodle section, and my mom said i'm in the mood for some pasta, but with the thick noodles. I got so excited, and right off the back i remembered the homeade fettucini alfredo recipe that i had watched you make on your cooking segment ,right after Cake Boss had ended! The recipe only had a couple of ingredients, and it was the perfect thing to make for dinner:) It is so hot right, but i am just about to start! We are super excited to see the outcome, which looked so amazing on the show! I decided to add some small 1/2 sliced cherry tomatoes on the top to add a pop of color and add a bit of crunch, and a more italian feel..You should definitely keep on doing the cooking show, because you have some great recipes that are so simple and super delicious!!
