Instructions
- Cook Noodles: Cook the egg noodles al dente according to package instructions. Drain and set aside while you prepare the sauce.
- Sauté Vegetables: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add the diced onion, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, thawed peas and carrots. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 3 minutes until the onion becomes soft and translucent.
