Indulge in a cheesy veggie pasta; a delightful Italian meal.
Ingredients:
  • 1 package (12 oz) whole wheat fettuccine
  • 2 cups cut-up fresh asparagus
  • 1 tablespoon butter or margarine
  • 1 medium zucchini, cut into julienne strips (2 cups)
  • 1 box (9 oz) frozen baby sweet peas
  • 1 medium tomato, chopped (3/4 cup)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh or 2 tablespoons dried basil leaves
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions:
  • Prepare the fettuccine according to package instructions. Once cooked, rinse the pasta with cold water and drain.
  • Boil asparagus in generously salted boiling water for 3 to 4 minutes or until vibrant and crisp-tender; then, drain well.
  • Melt butter in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in asparagus, zucchini, and peas and cook for about 4 minutes, stirring often, until they are crisp-tender.
  • Combine the asparagus mixture, fettuccine, tomato, basil, and pepper in a large bowl. Chill covered in the refrigerator for about 1 hour. Sprinkle with cheese before serving.
