Garlic Butter Pasta Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Garlic butter pasta could hardly be simpler. Toss spaghetti in warm garlicky butter and off you go to carb heaven. People often add cheese to give the dish a little more body and substance, as well as something green for more flavor and a burst of color. The options are endless. But this recipe is a great jumping off point. This recipe calls for chard and parmesan in addition to the garlic butter, but feel free to omit them or substitute your embellishments. Just remember that the beauty of this dish is its simplicity.
