The Mad Foodie is Back!

And he’s got the perfect alfredo sauce recipe for you! It almost makes me want to cook. Almost. Enjoy. *Drools.

So I don’t know about you guys, but I get tired of that jarred tomato sauce pretty quickly. Admittedly, some of them are pretty tasty (I loves me a good vodka cream sauce, especially on gnocchi…Mmmmmm…) Anyways, if you feel like me, maybe you also REALLY love a good alfredo sauce. If you don’t, don’t talk to me. Otherwise, wrap your mind around this:

The Mad Foodie’s Awesome Alfredo Sauce

-1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese

-1/4 cup (1/2 average-sized block) Cream Cheese

-1/4 cup Butter or Margarine

-1/2 cup milk (or cream, if you’re brave)

-Minced garlic (or garlic powder) to taste

- Combine all ingredients in a saucepan over low heat. Stir constantly for 10 minutes or until sauce is smooth.

Did you really think making Alfredo sauce was that easy? I didn’t, until I made this. It’s fast, incredibly simple, and freakin’ delicious. Admittedly, it’s not for you dietary or vegan people. I don’t trust vegans anyway. Don’t make this dish with vegan anything or I will hunt you down and make you pay. Continue reading

I don’t like the vast majority of people I see, and the rest of them have to be pretty darn awesome to fall into my good graces (you’re all reading this, so you’re OK). But there’s one person, above all others, that deserves not only my hatred, but, as far as I’m concerned, the hatred of all of humanity.

That man…

…is Bobby Flay.

I love cooking. I love food. I love to eat food that I cook. I love to eat food that other people cook. Hell, sometimes I even like to clean up the dishes afterwords. Because of this love of cooking, I idolize many so-called “celebrity chefs”: Gordon Ramsay, Anthony Bourdain, and Emeril Lagasse, just to name a few. But I have found no other chef more deserving of a slow, painful death than Bobby Flay. Continue reading
