Easy Vegi Pasta

Easy Vegi Pasta

This is quick and easy. Good as a main dish, side dish, or lunch. It could be altered to use more fresh vegetables, of course.

Yield: 4 servings (“servings-ish” to be completely accurate)

2 cups dry pasta

5 cups water

Add water to pan and heat on high to a boil. Add pasta. Heat on medium for 8-12 minutes or until soft. Drain and mix with vegetable sauce (below).

1 cup frozen peas

4oz fresh mushroom, chopped

1 tbsp butter

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/4 cup shredded Swiss cheese

In a frying pan, set heat to medium. Add peas, mushrooms, butter, and salt. Stir often for 6-8 minutes, until butter is melted and peas are soft and warm. Mix with pasta. Top with Swiss and serve warm.

I have nothing cute or witty to say. This was good. We ate it. Our tummies were happy.

Score: @@@
