Aye, here we go, talking ’bout what to eat with that creamy fettuccine alfredo. That pasta, it’s good, but you need something on the side, right? Something to make it a real meal.
Garlic Bread, My Favorite
First thing that comes to my mind is garlic bread. Oh boy, that buttery, garlicky goodness. It just goes so well with that creamy sauce. You take a bite of that pasta, then a bite of that bread. It’s easy, you just need some bread and some garlic and butter. Slap it together and boom.
- Butter, lots of butter
- Garlic, don’t be shy
- Bread, any kind will do
You can buy it at the store, but homemade is always better, you know? Just get some bread, slather it with butter and garlic, maybe some of that Italian seasoning if you got it, and bake it till it’s golden and crispy. It ain’t fancy, but it sure is tasty. Garlic bread with fettuccine alfredo, that’s a match made in heaven, I tell ya.
Meatballs, Oh Yeah
Now, if you want something with a bit more oomph, meatballs are the way to go. Those little balls of meat, swimming in sauce. You can make them yourself, or buy them frozen, ain’t no shame in that. Just heat ’em up and you’re good to go. Those meatballs with fettuccine alfredo is a good choice. A classic!
Fettuccine alfredo needs something, you know? Meatballs are good. They just go together like two peas in a pod. You can have those meatballs on top of pasta, or on the side. Either way, it’s a good time.
Don’t Forget Them Potatoes
And let’s not forget about potatoes. Plain old boiled potatoes. Might sound boring, but they’re good. Just boil them potatoes up, mash ’em a bit maybe, add some butter and salt. They soak up that alfredo sauce real good.
- Potatoes, any kind
- Water, to boil ’em in
- Salt, for flavor
- Butter, cause why not?
Potatoes are cheap and filling. They make a meal stretch, you know? Good for when you got a lot of mouths to feed. And they’re good with that fettuccine alfredo. They just are. Don’t argue with me on this one. Boiled potatoes with fettuccine alfredo will not let you down.
Seasonings
And the seasoning, gotta have seasoning. Just plain pasta is boring. Need some salt, some pepper. Maybe some onion powder if you are feeling fancy. If you really wanna get wild, get some Italian seasoning. Sprinkle that on top of your fettuccine alfredo. Makes all the difference, I tell ya.
Chicken Rag, Oh My!
Now, back in my day, we used to eat fettuccine with chicken rag, they called it. Basically, it’s just chicken all cooked up in a sauce. Kinda like them meatballs, but with chicken. It’s real good, and it fills you up. You can have it with that fettuccine alfredo too. Just make that chicken rag, and serve it right along with that creamy pasta.
You can put some green beans with it too. Just boil ’em up, toss ’em with a little butter. Or maybe some carrots. Whatever you got, really. Just something to make it a little more, you know, complete. You can’t just eat pasta by itself. Well, you can, but it ain’t right.
Make It a Meal
So there you have it. Garlic bread, meatballs, potatoes, chicken rag. All good things to eat with your fettuccine alfredo. That’s how you make that pasta into a real meal. It ain’t hard, just takes a little bit of thinking. You got this, I know you do. Just make that fettuccine alfredo, pick a side, and enjoy that meal. You earned it. And that is how to make your pasta night a little extra special.
You don’t need nothing fancy. Just good, simple food. That’s what life’s all about, ain’t it? Good food, good company. That’s all you need. So go on, make that fettuccine, and enjoy it with whatever side dish you like. You’ll be glad you did.
