In a pot, bring the olive oil to medium-low heat. Add the garlic and stir, allowing it to cook for 1-2 minutes. Mix in the butter until melted. Add the salt, pepper and chicken stock. Raise the heat to high and let it come to a boil.
Once it is at a rolling boil, add the pasta and cook for as long as the box’s directions indicate. Reduce the stove to medium heat and mix in the parmesan until completely melted. Turn off the heat and stir in the cream and parsley. Serve immediately.
Parmesan Pull-aparts (recipe and picture found here)
- 2 cans (7.5 oz each) refrigerated Homestyle Biscuits (I used Butter Lovin!)
- 3 tablespoons Butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried Parsley
- 1 teaspoon dried Minced Onion
- 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan Cheese
- 1/3 cup shredded Mozzerella Cheese
Directions: Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a small bowl mix together the melted butter, garlic powder, dried parsley, minced onion and parmesan cheese. Spread mixture in the bottom of a 9 inch glass pie plate. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the butter mixture.
Remove biscuits from cans. Place biscuits close together over the top of the cheese and butter mixture.
Bake biscuits in the oven for 12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and let stand for 3 minutes. Turn biscuits upside down onto a serving plate. Serve warm!
Then tonight for dinner I really wanted to try a pot roast in the crock-pot. I went to my favorite cooking site Taste of Home for this. It turned out AMAZING! We actually did not have any dijon mustard even though I swore I had some and since it was Sunday and we don't shop on Sundays unless we're on vacation or family is visiting us that meant we were out of luck. I didn't have any ingredients on hand to even make the suggested subs for dijon mustard so I just completely eliminated it. I still want to try it with the mustard though.
