INGREDIENTS
- 2 cups uncooked bow tie pasta
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided

- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
DIRECTIONS
- Cook pasta according to package directions (try whole wheat).
- While the pasta is cooking, heat a large pan over medium heat. Add butter, onion and garlic, and cook until onions are soft, about 3-4 minutes. Add the asparagus to the pan and cook for another 2 minutes. Add peas to the pan and cook for another 2 minutes. Set aside.
- Drain the cooked pasta and add to the pan with vegetable mixture. Add feta, dill, lemon juice, salt and pepper to the pan. Toss until well combined.
