Asparagus Pasta Primavera

There's plenty of fresh herb flavor in this delicious pasta meal that blends asparagus, ham, mushrooms and plum tomatoes. Sometimes I like to use spinach linguine or fettuccine. -William Anatooskin Burnaby, British Columbia

    This recipe has way too much garlic. It overwelmed all the other flavors
