Recipe: Alfredo Macaroni

I like to try out new recipes with my little sister, Molli. Today I experimented a little bit, swaying from our usual Alfredo Ravioli. This dish came out great, according to our standards. I'm thinking it would be an easy and simple recipe to make on a lazy night in or for lunch in a college dorm. Here's my recipe:

Alfredo Macaroni
(beginner level: eat in 10-15 minutes, tops)

You'll Need:

1 large pot
1 small pot (or sauce pot)
1 strainer
2 spoons
1 bag of large elbow macaroni pasta
1 tub of Buitoni Alfredo sauce
water
olive oil
salt
pepper
Tony Chacere's Seasoning
butter

Steps:
1) Fill the large pot halfway with water. Add 1 shot of olive oil (eyeball it). Boil.
2) Pour in half of the bag of pasta (or more, or less, depending on your personal preference). Boil for 8 minutes to al dente. (Stir at intervals to prevent sticking).
3) While the pasta is boiling, take half of the tub of Alfredo sauce and pour it into the sauce pot. Heat on simmer. Add salt, pepper, and Tony's (personal preference).
4) Once the pasta is done, strain it. Transfer the strained pasta into your serving container.
5) Pour the sauce over the pasta and stir thoroughly. Top with Tony's, if desired. Serve.

(**Sidenote: When I made it in this way ^, it served 4 people.**)
