    Stir in pasta; cook and stir until thoroughly heated. Stir in parsley. Sprinkle with cheese.

  • Asiago is a semifirm Italian cheese with a rich, nutty flavor. It's a bit softer than Parmesan cheese and tastes a little smoother.
  • Place parsley in a glass measuring cup and use kitchen scissors to quickly chop it.
  • Parmesan cheese is a good substitute for the Asiago.
