PREPARATION

Cook pasta according to directions on package.

While pasta is cooking, boil a small pan of water to cook the frozen peas.

While pasta is cooking and the water for the peas is heating up, wash the asparagus and chop each stalk into 1-2 inch pieces.

Boil peas and then blanch under cold water for about 30 seconds so they do not get too soft.

Drain the pasta and place back into pot. Add the peas and the asparagus to the pasta.

Cut the lemon in half and squeeze the halves over the pasta. Mix well and use tongs to dish onto plates or into bowls.

Garnish with pepper (to taste) and sprinkle some freshly grated parmesan cheese on top.
