Smoky Pasta with Asparagus

Published April 30, 2014

Since I have been lucky enough to have some fresh asparagus from Blue Pike Farm I have been eating it in all sorts of dishes. Made this for lunch today and it was really good. I started by cooking some chopped bacon in a skillet. I spooned out most of the fat and added about half a cup of chopped shallots and a cup of chopped asparagus. I cooked the veggies with the bacon for a few minutes and then added a cup- maybe a bit more- of sliced mushrooms. Once the mushrooms were cooked I added a couple of cups of cooked pasta and cooked the dish until the pasta was heated through. I also added some fresh cracked pepper and a bit of hot sauce. Sprinkled with some grated Parmesan cheese when serving. Making this one again for sure.
