    List of Ingredients




    12 oz Angel Hair, uncooked
    1 10-oz. box frozen baby peas, defrosted OR 2 1/4 cups cooked peas, divided
    1 1/2 cups 1% milk
    1 Tbs all-purpose flour
    1/2 tsp salt
    1/4 tsp ground black pepper
    2 tsp vegetable oil
    1 small red onion, peeled and sliced very thin (about 1/2 cup)
    2 cups chopped extra-lean ham
    1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
    Salt to taste
    Black pepper to taste

    Recipe



    1 Cook pasta according to package directions. While pasta is cooking, combine 1/2 cup of the peas, milk, flour, salt and pepper in a blender jar or food processor. Blend until very smooth. Add remaining peas (without blending) and set aside.
    2 Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and ham and cook, tossing, until onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Add milk mixture, reduce heat to low and simmer 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
    3 When pasta is done, drain well, reserving 1/2 cup of pasta cooking liquid. Add ham sauce and reserved pasta cooking liquid. Stir over low heat until pasta is coated with sauce.
    4 Transfer to a serving platter or plates. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve, passing Parmesan cheese separately.


    Servings: 5
