Ingredients:
3/4 lb Fresh asparagus spears or one 10-oz. pkg. frozen asparagus
2 can (14-1/2-oz.) stewed tomatoes cut up
1 tbsp Dried parsley flakes
1/2 tsp Dried basil, crushed
1/2 tsp Dried oregano, crushed
1/8 tsp Ground red pepper (optional)
1 cup Evaporated skim milk
10-oz. multicolored pasta such as wagon wheel or corkscrew
6 oz Lean fully cooked ham, cut into bite-size strips
1 small Red or green sweet pepper cut into strips
Grated Parmesan cheese (opt)
Instructions:
Snap off and discard the woody bases from the fresh asparagus, if
using. Bias-slice the asparagus into 1-inch pieces. (Or thaw and
drain the frozen asparagus.)

FOR SAUCE, in a medium saucepan combine stewed tomatoes, parsley,
basil, oregano, and ground red pepper, if desired. Bring to boiling.
Simmer the sauce, uncovered, about 15 minutes or till reduced to
2-1/2 cups, stirring occasionally. Add the evaporated milk all at
once, stirring constantly. Heat mixture through; do not boil.

Meanwhile, prepare pasta according to package directions EXCEPT add
the asparagus, ham and sweet pepper to the boiling water during the
last 4 minutes of cooking time. Drain pasta and vegetables.

To serve, place pasta mixture on a serving plater. Spoon the sauce
over the pasta. Serve with Parmesa cheese, if desired. Serve at once.

Makes 4 or 5 main-dish servings.
