Simple Fettuccine Alfredo With Asparagus and Peas Featuring AMORE

Celebrating late summer with a delicious simple Fettuccine Alfredo With Asparagus and Peas. What I love about pasta is there are so many ways to make it and this warm weather pasta is just perfection! It’s so easy to put together too! Just toss slices of blanched asparagus and fresh Green peas with a tangle of cooked fettuccine with garlicky buttery flavor, shower with grated Parmesan and serve.

I absolutely love the Garlic Paste from Amore. It’s imported from Italy and it’s so easy to use with no waste; just squeeze out the amount needed, cap and refrigerate! It’s a mellow mixture of fresh garlic, sunflower and olive oils, and salt. It captures the fresh, intense garlic flavor you’d expect if you squeezed the cloves, but it’s fast, versatile and easy! And I love easy.
