Fettuccine Alfredo

Mac & cheese for adults!
- I can't eat spaghetti, there's too many of them, no matter how hungry I am.
Quintessential American food
- It's great for a quick lunch or as a midnight snack after a night out for sure. A nice, lazy dish without a lot of prep work or ingredients.
  
  You throw cheese to butter pasta? I thought that "pasta al burro" was just pasta, some butter and some herbs, no cheese.
- This classic variation of the dish is based on the original recipe used by Alfredo in his Roman restaurant: nothing but fresh pasta, butter, and Parmigiano Reggiano. But yes, it's an American dish.
  
  Wait what, that’s actually the dish? This is literally my depressive episode food because it has zero prep work.
  I would Ive guessed an actual recipe at least uses some cream and herbs to make it a bit saucier
- The grilled cheese -> Mac and cheese -> fettuccine Alfredo Pokémon evolution of comfort food
