QUICK AND CREAMY HAM FETTUCCINI
This elegant and easy Creamy Ham Fettuccine is Angie Smith's own version of an old Italian favorite and has earned top honors with friends and family. "It's my most requested dish," notes the Clarksville, Tennessee cook. "I really like the thicker texture of the sauce, which is great with any hearty pastas, such as whole wheat tortellini or penne-and I sometimes add peas for extra nutrition."

FETTUCCINE WITH PEAS AND HAM
This is one of the recipes I adopted from the Recipezaar account. I chose it because a local restaurant makes a similar dish that I absolutely love. Susie in Texas was kind enough to test out the recipe and I have incorporated her suggestion of reversing a couple of steps. The directions now read according to her suggestions. I hope you enjoy it!

PASTA WITH HAM, PEAS, AND CREAM
A pasta dish kids love and one that became traditional with mine whenever we left them with a sitter for the evening. It's best if the ham is prosciutto, the cream thick and fresh, and the peas just shelled, but it's pretty good with supermarket ham and cream and frozen peas, and I've made it that way plenty of times. For variety, add about a cup of sliced button mushrooms to the ham mixture.

Steps:
- Bring both a large and a small pot of water to a boil; salt them both. In the small pot, cook the peas until tender, 3 or 4 minutes. Drain and set aside. Put the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat; when it melts, add the ham and cook for about a minute. Stir in the peas, the cream, a pinch of salt, and a fair amount of black pepper. Turn the heat to low; keep warm, stirring occasionally, while you cook the pasta.
- Cook the pasta until tender but not mushy; drain, reserving about a cup of the cooking liquid. Toss the pasta with the cream mixture; if it seems too thick, add a little of the reserved cooking water. Stir in the Parmesan, taste and adjust the seasoning, and serve.
Tips:
- To save time, use frozen peas instead of fresh peas.
- If you don't have heavy cream, you can substitute milk and butter.
- To make the sauce richer, add a tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese.
- For a more flavorful dish, use smoked ham instead of regular ham.
- If you don't have fettuccine, you can use another type of pasta, such as spaghetti or linguine.
- Garnish the dish with fresh parsley or chives before serving.
Conclusion:
Creamy fettuccine with ham and peas is a simple but delicious dish that can be made in under 30 minutes. It's perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. The creamy sauce is rich and flavorful, and the ham and peas add a nice touch of protein and vegetables. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
