Instructions

1 Preheat the oven to 425F. Remove the tough ends from the asparagus by snapping
them off with your hands. Once removed, cut the asparagus into 1-inch pieces.
Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet and drizzle with oil, salt, and
pepper. Mix to distribute oil and seasoning. Roast for 15 minutes, stirring
halfway. Keep the oven light on and check periodically as all ovens differ.
2 Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta according to package
instructions. Drain and toss with a little oil to prevent the noodles from
sticking together.
3 Fill a small saucepan about a quarter of the way with water and add the peas.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, and cook 4-6 minutes. Scoop out ¼ cup of
water (it's okay if some peas sneak in!). Drain and add the ¼ cup of water and
the peas to your blender.
4 Add all of the pea pesto ingredients to the blender. Blend on high until smooth.
5 Add sauce to the bowl with the pasta, toss in the roasted asparagus, and stir to
combine. Serve with fresh basil and black pepper.
