Steps:
- Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente, tender but slightly firm. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water, then strain the pasta and toss with a splash of oil in the colander.
- Meanwhile, slice the mushroom caps into 1/4-inch-thick strips. Snap the woody ends off the asparagus and cut into 2-inch lengths. Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and add 2 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter melts, raise the heat to medium-high and add the mushrooms in 1 layer. Cook, without moving, until the undersides have browned, 1 to 2 minutes, then stir and cook until golden about 2 minutes more. Add the asparagus, another tablespoon of butter, and 1/2 teaspoon salt and continue to cook, stirring occasionally until the asparagus is tender and the mushrooms are browned, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to the colander with the pasta.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 5 tablespoons butter. When the butter has mostly melted, whisk in the cream and bring to a simmer, then add the peas and cook for 2 minutes. Turn off the heat.
- Whisk the Parmigiano-Reggiano into the sauce. Add the vegetables, cooked pasta, chives and lemon zest and toss well. Season with salt and pepper. The pasta will thicken as it cools. To thin it, add reserved pasta water 1 tablespoon at a time and toss to reach the desired consistency. Serve hot in heated bowls.

CHICKEN FETTUCCINE ALFREDO WITH VEGGIES
"I especially like to use frozen California-blend veggies when making this dish. If you prefer, you can substitute fresh garden vegetables, but it will add a little time. Simply start them in boiling water before adding the pasta. Then add the pasta during the last 3 minutes of cooking the veggies. This makes an easy, colorful and delicious entree!"

- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for pasta. Cook the pasta until al dente according to the package directions, then reserve 2 cups of the pasta water and drain.
- Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, scatter in the mushrooms.

Add 1 cup of the pasta water and bring to a rapid simmer. Cook until the vegetables are tender and the sauce has thickened, about 3 minutes. Add the oat milk and remaining 1 tablespoon oil, bring to a simmer and stir to combine. Toss to coat the pasta with the sauce, adding the remaining pasta water, as needed, if it seems dry.

Tips:
- Use fresh vegetables. Fresh vegetables will give your dish the best flavor and texture. If you can, buy organic vegetables to avoid pesticides and other chemicals.
- Cut your vegetables into even pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the slow cooker. If you overcrowd the slow cooker, the vegetables won't cook evenly.
- Cook the vegetables on low heat for 6-8 hours. This will give them time to soften and absorb the flavors of the sauce.
- Add the fettuccine noodles during the last 30 minutes of cooking. This will prevent them from becoming overcooked.
- Serve the dish immediately. Fettuccine Alfredo is best enjoyed fresh.
