Cream-y Cheese Pasta Recipe with Asparagus & Corn
Kerry recently started working one night a week, leaving Wyatt and I to fend for ourselves at dinner. When it’s just Wyatt and I, we spend a lot of time out of the house. Coming up with quick and easy dishes is the difference between a home cooked meal and the two of us grabbing a burrito.
The flavors of this pasta are light and creamy, accented with bursts of asparagus and corn. If you don’t eat all of it in one sitting, served cold it makes a great pasta salad.
This dish can be prepped, cooked in 45 minutes. During two of the steps, when things are boiling, you have time to wash what you’ve already dirtied. Something else that’s great about this dish, it can all get cooked in one pot!
It took Wyatt a few minutes to realize the sauce on the outside of the asparagus was a cheese sauce, but once he did he tore through his entire serving.
