ASPARAGUS PORTOBELLO PASTA is this month's recipe.
2 (15-ounce) cans asparagus
1 (2.25-ounce) can sliced black olives
1/2 pound fettuccini pasta
1 T olive oil
3 large portobello mushrooms, sliced
1 (8-ounce) can peas, drained
2 tsp Italian seasoning
1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Fill a large pot with water and the drained liquids of the asparagus
and the olives; bring to a boil. Cook pasta for 8 to 10 minutes, or
until al dente. Drain.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté
mushrooms, peas, and Italian seasoning until mushrooms are tender.
In a blender or food processor, puree asparagus, black olives, tomato
paste and Parmesan. Transfer to a small saucepan, and heat through
over medium-low heat. Spoon asparagus sauce over fettuccini, and top
with mushrooms and peas.
Makes 4 servings.
Missing a spice? Remember you can use essential oils in cooking in place of the herbs but you just use a tiny bit!
