Perfect Work Week Pasta

YAY...it is finally Friday, which leads to the next question. What to make for dinner on a comfy Friday night at home with you honey? As most of my recipes, whether at work or home, I look in the fridge or freezer and find some meat for a starting point, then the pantry and allow my imagination to run wild. With that being said this is the recipe I came up with for dinner tonight.

My recipe for Perfect Work Week Pasta is as follows:

Perfect Work Week Pasta

Mushrooms
Pork Strips
Canned Peas
Fresh Cherry Tomatoes
Heavy Cream
Beef Broth
Penne Pasta
9 Basil Leaves, chopped
Salt and Pepper to Taste

Cook 1/2 box of pasta until al dente. In a saucepan on high, saute 1 container mushrooms until golden brown,  in another saucepan saute pork strips in olive oil until browned, cut in small pieces, add to mushrooms with cherry tomatoes, reduce heat to medium, add basil, beef broth, peas and heavy cream. Heat through and add pasta, season if necessary. Serve with a delicious salad and bread. Save leftovers for a quick lunch on Saturday.

Enjoy your pasta and special someone.
