    List of Ingredients




    10 oz uncooked bow ties
    2 tsp olive oil
    8 oz asparagus, tough ends trimmed
    1 medium yellow pepper(s), cut into 2-inch pieces
    1/4 cup white wine vinegar
    1 tsp sugar
    1 medium garlic clove(s), minced
    4 tsp blue cheese, crumbled
    1 1/2 cup cherry tomato(es), halved
    1 Tbsp parsley, or basil or chives, chopped (optional)
    1/8 tsp table salt, or to taste
    1/8 tsp black pepper, or to taste

    Recipe



    ** Cook pasta according to package instructions; drain and toss with olive oil.
    ** Preheat grill. Lightly coat asparagus and pepper with cooking spray. Grill over medium-hot coals until tender, about 5 to 8 minutes depending on size. Flip peppers once during cooking. Turn asparagus occasionally so it cooks evenly on all sides. Remove vegetables from grill and let cool; cut into bite-size pieces.
    ** Combine vinegar, sugar, garlic and cheese in a small bowl. Toss together with pasta, grilled vegetables, tomatoes and herbs. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let cool to room temperature before serving.

    NOTE: This recipe is designed for outdoor grilling, but to make it indoors, simply use a grill pan, or steam the asparagus and sauté the peppers in a skillet coated with cooking spray.
