     Title: Rotelle With Asparagus and Mushroom Sauce
Categories: Pasta, Low-fat, Fast food
     Yield: 4 servings

     8 oz Fresh mushrooms, trimmed, halved, if large, and sliced
     1 Tb White wine
     1    Garlic clove, crushed
    12 oz Fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1/2" diagonals
          Salt and freshly ground
          -black pepper
     2 T  Fresh lemon juice
     8 oz Rotelle pasta
     2 T  Minced red bell pepper

Combine the mushrooms, wine, and garlic in a medium skillet.  Cook,
covered, over low heat until the mushrooms exude their juices, 5 to 7
minutes.  Add the asparagus; cook, covered, 3 minutes.  Uncover and
cook over medium-high heat, stirring until most of the liquid is
evaporated, about 3 minutes.  Add salt, pepper, and lemon juice.

Meanwhile, cook the pasta in plenty of boiling, salted water until
al dente, about 10 minutes; spoon out 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking
liquid and add to the mushroom mixture.  Drain the pasta.  Toss the
pasta with the mushroom mixture and the red pepper.
