Oodles of Noodles
Ever since fall hit here in the mitten state it’s been more like summer instead of fall. Sooner or later the leaves will be off the trees and the temperatures will have dropped, therefore the only thing on my mind will be comfort food. Noodles & Company is one of my go-to fall comfort food restaurants. From pasta and mac and cheese to salads Noodles & Company has a little something for everyone. Recently I had the opportunity to give their menu a try, and let me tell you I now have some new favorites.
pictured above: Buffalo Chicken Mac features Wisconsin Mac & Cheese with Parmesan chicken, Frank’s RedHot® Buffalo Wings Sauce, parmesan cheese and green onions - easily one of my new favorites.
Cheesy Garlic BreadParmesan and garlic butter melted over toasted petite baguette with Italian seasonings and marinara sauce. - Absolutely LOVE!
Korean BBQ Meatballs with Gochujang SauceFlavorful meatballs tossed with a sweet and spicy Korean-style Gochujang (go-choo-jang) barbeque sauce. Definitely a favorite!
Pad Thai
Rice noodle stir-fry with scrambled egg, napa and red cabbage, citrus, peanuts, Asian sprouts, green onions and cilantro.
Truffle Mac
Wisconsin Mac & Cheese with black truffle, roasted mushrooms, parmesan cheese and toasted bread crumbs. - New fav mac & cheese
Alfredo MontAmore
Spaghetti noodles, four-cheese blend alfredo, roasted mushrooms, tomato, spinach and parmesan chicken, topped with MontAmore cheese and cracked pepper.
