There is really nothing better or easier than pasta! With so many healthy and tasty gluten free pasta options, we are always coming up with delicious recipes for a quick, satisfying, plant lunch or dinner option. Currently, asparagus is in season and I came up with a recipe and have made it a few times since. I love the combination of mushroom and asparagus with a simple buttery, white wine sauce.
You can adjust the ghee to your liking, should you feel you need a little more you can always add! This combination is light but filling! Let us know if you love it.
