Sometimes, a bowl of no-fuss Butter Noodles is just the meal you need during a busy or stressful week. My version of Butter Noodles starts with the classic egg noodles and butter before I add in a few peas and a good sprinkle of parmesan for a bit of a modern twist. To keep this 4-Ingredient dish kid-friendly, there is no garlic or lemon. Made in less than 15 minutes!

How to Store
Store leftover butter noodles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. To reheat, place in a microwave safe bowl and sprinkle with a little water, which helps to add moisture so the pasta isn't too dry. Heat for 30 seconds at a time, stirring until warmed.
