Pasta with Asparagus and Peas recipe

.

This turned out great. The pesto is absolutely perfect and it sticks to the pasta much better than traditional pesto. The bow ties are a great match but I'm sure any pasta would work too. Spirals I think would really hold the pesto. It was fairly quick and easy to make, and only used one pot plus the food processor.

Crusty french bread, brushed with garlic and olive oil topped with tomato, sea salt, mozzarella and basil then a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil make very fresh appetizers that showcase the simple ingredients. Quick and easy to make for guests in a flash.

Love this mediterranean style pasta salad! Marinated artichoke hearts, olives, and feta cheese were a delicious combination. The cherry tomatoes and broccoli add the fresh taste, sometimes we add several strips of roasted bell pepper, or freshly sliced mushrooms, or a few coarsely chopped sun-dried tomatoes.

Simply toss warm pasta, cooked broccoli, bell pepper and carrot with a tasty olive oil-lemon dressing and parmesan cheese. A delicious yet nutritious meal is ready to go.

A simple but delicious pasta dish that is perfect for lunch on a hot summer day.

"'With fresh mushrooms, plum tomatoes and herbs to spice up its flavor, this dish tastes like summertime to me,' says Jacqueline Graves of Lawrenceville, Georgia. Chock-full of garden goodness, the chunky sauce cooks up quickly, too."

It is a great summer recipe.
