i wanted to use up some more of the asparagus i got in my bountiful basket, so i found this recipe: pasta with asparagus. i also grilled some chicken breasts to go with it.
a few notes about how mine differed from the original recipe. i used 2 cans of mushrooms since i didn't have any fresh ones on hand. next time i will use only 1 can and put in more asparagus.
