It's that time of year for everyone to eat their fill of fresh asparagus! I found this from Kraft and thought it looked wonderful. Ingredients:
1 lb asparagus spear, cut into 1-inch pieces |
1/2 cup garlic & herb salad dressing mix, prepared and divided |
1 lb cleaned medium shrimp |
1 large red pepper, cut into thin strips |
2 cups penne pasta or 2 cups ziti pasta, uncooked |
4 ounces feta cheese |
Directions:
1. Cook asparagus in 1 tablespoons of the prepared dressing in large nonstick skillet on medium heat 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
2. Add shrimp and red pepper; cover.
3. Cook 5 minutes or until shrimp turn pink and vegetables are crisp-tender, stirring occasionally.
4. Meanwhile, cook pasta as directed on package.
5. Drain pasta; place in large serving bowl.
6. Add remaining dressing, asparagus mixture and cheese; toss lightly.
7. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until chilled.
