    List of Ingredients




    4 to 6 oz. dry angel hair pasta (or your choice)
    2 tbsp. butter
    1/2 cup diced onion or green onion
    1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
    1 cup canned milk
    4 oz. wedge of parmesan, grated (divided in half)
    3 or 4 oz. dry white wine
    1/2 bag frozen petit (early) peas, thawed & drained
    1-1/2 to 2 cups diced cooked ham
    handful of pine nuts
    salt & pepper to taste

    Recipe



    Prepare pasta according to package directions; drain well.

    While pasta cooks, melt butter in large skillet over medium heat; add onion & mushrooms; stir fry until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add milk and half of the grated parmesan. Continue stirring until parmesan melts; stir in wine and add the peas & ham; check for seasoning and heat to serving temperature. (If you want the sauce a little thicker, feel free to thicken it - I didn't, but it might have been better if I had)

    Gently toss pasta with sauce and place in a casserole dish; top with remaining grated parmesan. Run under the broiler for about 4 or 5 minutes until parmesan browns to a medium golden color.

    Allow to set a few minutes before serving.
