Mushroom Cheese Pasta Sauce w/ Asparagus

I love asparagus but it is so expensive and I always manage to let it go bad before I remember I bought it.

NOT this time. I loaded up on other tasty ingredients and whipped something up right away!

Mushroom Cheese Pasta Sauce w/ Asparagus

1/2 cup vegetable broth

1 tbs. butter

1 tbs. olive oil

1/2 cup cheese such as fontina, parmesan, pecorino (we used fontina); shredded

Chopped and halved mushrooms

Salt & Pepper

1 clove garlic; minced

angel hair pasta

asparagus; chopped

1   Saute mushrooms and garlic in the butter and oil until the mushrooms begin to brown

2   Then on medium heat add the broth, cheese, salt and pepper and simmer for 5-10 minutes

3   Cook the pasta in lightly salted water

4   After a few minutes add the asparagus to the pasta water for 5 minutes

5   Remove asparagus from pot and saute with salt and oil for a few minutes

6   Serve pasta with mushroom sauce and add the asparagus, sprinkle a little cheese on top :)
