White Sauce / Creamy Sauce for Pasta

Heather often simply calls this "white sauce". We often have this sauce over noodles and served with grilled chicken and vegetables.

Ingredients:

• 3 tablespoons butter or margarine
• 3 tablespoons flour
• 1 cup milk (or 1/2 cup milk and 1/2 cup chicken broth)
• Spices (salt, pepper, garlic) to taste

Directions:

• Melt butter in sauce pan over medium heat. 
• Add flour and wisk together. 
• Add liquid (milk and/or chicken broth) 
• Cook over medium heat, stirring / wisking frequently until the sauce thickens (five minutes or so).
