Penne with Green Beans, Bread C,M,T

An inexpensive meal; serve with crusty whole wheat bread. Estimated cost: pasta (two boxes)(2.), white cheese sauce (2.), onion (chopped) and green beans (frozen, uncut) (3.), bread (3.) = $10.00

1. Boil and drain pasta, as box directs. Prepare white cheese sauce (my recipe) in a small saucepan.

2. In a frying pan, saute the chopped onion until golden in a small amount of oil. Add or frozen (thawed) full-legnth green beans and garlic; and saute for 30 seconds longer. Stir in white cheese sauce. Add crushed red pepper, salt, pepper and herbs to taste (I use rosemary). Heat through, mix in penne pasta to coat.
