Pasta and Peas

Italian Dinner Recipes

In a large pot, heat 2 Tbsp. olive oil, and 2 Tbsp. butter. Add a clove of chopped garlic, 1 chopped onion, some fresh or dried basil, some crushed red pepper to taste, and 1/2 tsp. sugar. Let all ingredients sizzle; DON'T BURN GARLIC. Pour in 1 10-12 oz. can peas, and 1 can (same size) Italian stewed tomatoes. Bring to a slight boil. Add 3/4 lb. of cooked farfalle (bow tie pasta) to peas/tomato mixture and let simmer for 5-10 minutes. Serve with grated cheese. Enjoy! -Diana
