So I haven't updated my blog in months. This is a recipe that I made back in May which I failed to document. I had leftover asparagus; so I decided to make a pasta using the asparagus.
1/2 cup olive oil
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 (10 ounce) package fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 bunch fresh asparagus, trimmed and chopped
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
salt and pepper to taste
1 (16 ounce) package uncooked penne pasta
1 cup heavy cream

Overall, I enjoyed this recipe. However, I don't know if it had anything notable that would make me return for a second rendezvous with it. The cream-based sauce carries this recipe. Any vegetables could be used in place of the asparagus. I guess if I come across a veggie which doesn't already have a determined purpose, I will substitute it for the asparagus in this recipe.
Unfortunately, I don't recall all of the nuances of this recipe to comment much more than what I have already said. So, I will give this recipe 6 stars out of 10.
