One of the kids FAVORITE meals is homemade spaghetti. It is surprisingly easy to make and tastes WAAAAAAYYYY better than packaged pasta. Honest to goodness-I take out all the ingredients (as well as crack the eggs into bowls) and the kids literally make the ENTIRE meal on their own. If thats not simple, I don't know what is!?
We bought the pasta roller at a kitchen store in the mall many years back. Quite possibly the best $20 ever spent.
Martone Kids Favorite Pasta
2 1/2 cups flour
1 pinch salt
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup milk
1 TBSP butter
Throw it all in the food processor with dough blade attachment. Let it run until mixture forms a ball. Give the dough a quick roll in flour & run it thru the pasta roller to desired thickness. Boil noodles in large pot of salted water to al dente.
Bon Apetite!
(The crappy picts are because I was too lazy to use anything but my phone-live & learn)
Roll-Roll-Roll...then separate the fresh noodles...
