It's National Fettucine Alfredo Day❗

Today is a fan favorite when it comes to enjoying Fettucine.


According to Nationalcalendarday.com, "this day was created in 1908, out of love and concern by an Italian restauranteur named Alfredo di Lelio. Born out of his concern for his pregnant wife's lack of appetite, he whipped up a tasty recipe of noodles, cheese and butter to encourage her to it. After making the dish for her, it inspired him to put it on his menu and ever since then this century-old dish has been a fan favorite with pasta lovers worldwide."


FUN FACT: Our Deluxe Cooking Blender makes the BEST Alfredo Sauce. Quick , Easy and Hot and ready to serve!


So in honor of today, here's an easy recipe for you to try:
