Helpful hints
- Pasta can be prepared with low-fat or fat-free cream cheese and butter can be reduced to 1/4 cup to reduce fat and calories.
- Most grocery stores have cooked and peeled frozen shrimp that work great in this pasta.
- Dry white wine in place of water adds extra flavor, but you can use water instead.
- 1/2-pound asparagus yields approximately 1-3/4 cups.
