Looking for a quick and easy pasta dish, this angel hair pasta takes no time to make and uses ingredients that you will likely have in your fridge. I added asparagus to the mix because it was at the farmer’s market.

In today’s recipe, instead of chopped tomatoes, I already had cherry tomatoes on hand and used them instead of chopped tomatoes.

Because the base is just lemon, garlic, and wine, added vegetables to your taste.
