Pasta White Sauce

Cindy Sage
Melt one cube of butter. Add and stir 2/4 c flour. Add 2 cups hot water and 1 can evaporated milk. (Or use 3 cups cream or milk-will not be as rich) Stir over medium heat until thickened.

I season my white sauce with onion (can use powder), garlic (or powder) and salt and pepper.

Variations
Cheese sauce- to white sauce; add 2 c shredded cheddar cheese (great over pasta).
Broccoli cheese: Add to cheese sauce, chopped broccoli, and bacon bits.
Nacho Cheese: To Cheese sauce, add 1 cup salsa.
Alfredo sauce: Add grated Parmesan cheese to white sauce.
Add ins: Grilled chicken, broccoli, spinach, or green beans, carrots, peppers, etc.
Tuna noodle: Add 1-2 cans tuna to white sauce. Add 16 oz package cooked peas. And mix into noodles.
Great for scalloped or baked potatoes
