BOW TIE PASTA WITH SAUSAGE AND ASPARAGUS



Bow Tie Pasta With Sausage and Asparagus image

I'm typically not a lover of asparagus mixed with pasta but in this dish, IT ROCKS! My family appreciates a drier pasta so if yours likes things a bit saucier you may want to double the EVOO/butter to get it to your consistency. I usually love broccoli mixed in a pasta like this but the asparagus is by far the better choice!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the final dish. Look for asparagus that is bright green and firm, sausage that is well-seasoned, and a good quality pasta.
  • Don't overcook the asparagus: Asparagus should be cooked just until it is tender-crisp. Overcooked asparagus will be mushy and lose its flavor.
  • Use a large skillet: A large skillet will allow you to cook the sausage and asparagus in one pan, which will save time and cleanup.
  • Season the dish to taste: Add salt and pepper to taste, and consider adding other seasonings like garlic powder, onion powder, or red pepper flakes.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately, while the pasta is still hot and the asparagus is still crisp.

This bow ties with sausage and asparagus is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is packed with flavor and nutrients, and it is sure to please the whole family.
