Ingredients:


1 pound fresh asparagus

1 1/4 pounds lean boneless pork loin roast

1 spray vegetable cooking spray

1 tablespoon reduced-calorie margarine

4 cups sliced fresh mushrooms

4 teaspoons all-purpose flour

1 1/2 cups skim milk

1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese -- divided

1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/8 teaspoon pepper

5 cups hot cooked linguine cooked without salt or fat
 

Preparation / Directions:


Snap off tough ends of asparagus. Remove scales with a knife or vegetable peeler, if desired. Cut asparagus into 1-inch pieces. Drop asparagus into a saucepan of boiling water, and return to a boil. Cook 3 minutes or until crisp-tender. Drain asparagus; set aside. Trim fat from roast, and cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Coat a large saucepan with cooking spray, and place over medium-high heat until hot. Add pork, and cook 7 minutes or until done. Drain well, and set aside. Melt margarine in saucepan over medium heat. Add mushrooms; sauté‚7 minutes or until tender. Sprinkle mushrooms with flour; stir well, and cook an additional minute. Gradually stir in milk, and cook 5 minutes or until thickened, stirring constantly. Add asparagus, pork, 1/4 cup cheese, nutmeg, and pepper. Stir well. Yield: 5 servings (serving size: 1 cup pasta and 1 cup pork mixture).
