Pasta with Cheese Sauce

Cook the pasta according to the package instructions. In a separate saucepan, melt butter and blend in flour to create a roux. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly until thickened. Stir in grated cheese until smooth. Combine the pasta with the cheese sauce and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Sliced Cucumbers

Wash and thinly slice the cucumbers. Optionally, season with salt or a drizzle of olive oil.

Whole Blueberries

Wash the blueberries and serve them whole, either on the side or scattered around the other items for a burst of color and freshness.

Whole Grain Toasts or Crackers

If using whole grain bread, toast until crisp. For whole grain crackers, serve as is. Both can be enjoyed alone or with a spread of your choice.
