Ingredients

  • 1 lb asparagus
  • 8 oz uncooked tagliatelle pasta or fettuccine
  • 2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil
  • 4 medium green onions, sliced (1/4 cup)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese (4 oz)
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked pepper

Steps

  • 1
    Break off tough ends of asparagus as far down as stalks snap easily. Cut asparagus into 1-inch pieces. Cook pasta as directed on package, adding asparagus during last 5 minutes of cooking.

    Meanwhile, in 12-inch skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook onions, parsley and garlic in oil about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onions are tender. Reduce heat to medium.
  • 3
    Add pasta, asparagus and cheese to mixture in skillet. Cook about 3 minutes, tossing gently, until cheese is melted and pasta is evenly coated. Sprinkle with pepper.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

    Let your ingredents join forces! Adding vegetables to pasta water during the last minutes of cooking saves a major step (and saves you extra pans).
