Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb penne
1 cup cremini mushroom, sliced
1 tbsp butter
1/4 cup sun-dried tomato (i like to slice them into thick strips)
1 tbsp mascarpone cheese
8 stalks asparagus, blanched and chopped (diagonally )
salt and pepper , to taste
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated (freshly grated works & tastes the best )
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped

Directions:

Bring a 5-quart pot with salted water to a boil and add pasta.
Preheat sauté pan and melt butter.
Add mushrooms and sauté for about 2 minutes.
Add the heavy cream. Bring to a boil and add sun-dried tomatoes. Reduce cream by about 1/4. Add mascarpone, stirring to incorporate, then the asparagus. Season with salt and pepper and reduce heat. Sauce should have a medium thick consistency.
When pasta is al dente, drain and return to pot. Stir in sauce and Parmesan.
To serve, place in 2 bowls and top with walnuts.
Suggested wine: 2002 Distant Bay Pinot Noir, Monterey County.
