  • 1 bunch asparagus, tender parts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • ½ cup peas

  • ⅓ cup fresh chives, chopped

Instructions

  • Make the sauce: In a high speed blender, combine the cashews, water, garlic, lemon juice, mustard, and salt. Blend until creamy.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, and cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the asparagus and a few pinches of salt and sauté for 3 minutes, until the asparagus is just tender. Add the peas and garlic and stir. Turn off the heat and add a squeeze of lemon.
