ingredients

1 package (8 ounces) tagliatelle or fettucini pasta
1 pound asparagus, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 medium green onions, sliced
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

directions

Cook and drain pasta as directed on package - except add asparagus 5 minutes before pasta is done.

While pasta is cooking, heat oil in 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Cook onions, parsley and garlic in oil about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onions are tender. Reduce heat to medium.

Add pasta, asparagus and cheese to mixture in skillet. Cook about 3 minutes, tossing gently, until cheese is melted and pasta is evenly coated. Sprinkle with pepper.
