My husband loves his pasta, as does my son-in-law. This is another Gourmet magazine recipe that I've been making since it came out in April 1999. The recipe is Pasta with Spring Vegetables and Proscuitto. I hate to admit it, my husband and I can eat almost a pound of pasta ourselves. I am getting two suppers out of this sauce and you may find that too. It's loaded with lots of vegetables. It takes a bit of prepping, but I think you'll find it worth it. May I suggest that you do your shopping list tonight and make it this weekend. The sauces freezes well. It's well worth your time and effort. Your guests will love you for it. With any luck there may be leftovers for a certain weekend visitor! Buon appetito!
