Alfredo Sauce

you can easily add just pasta or veggies, some chicken, whatever you have.

1/4 cup butter
1 cup heavy cream
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 1/2 cups freshly grated cheese

Melt butter in a medium pan over a low heat.
Add cream and simmer for 5 mins, then add garlic and cheese and mix together.
Then add any other ingredients

Cashew Nut Roast

tried this the other week it was so good although a little buttery might cut back on it a bit.

2 sticks of Butter ( I would maybe just use 1 1/2 sticks now)
2 large onions, finely chopped
3 cups unroasted cashews
1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs
3 large cloves of garlic
1 cup water or vegetable stock
salt and pepper
Italian seasoning, or seasoning of choice

Line a loaf pan, or grease well.

Melt butter in pan and then saute garlic and onions.
Grind the cashews in a food processor with the bread add to the onions, garlic and butter, together with the water or stock, salt, pepper and seasoning.
mix together and heat in oven at 400F for 30 mins.
