Angel Hair Pasta with Prosciutto and Mushroom Cream Sauce
Prep: 5 minutes; Cook: 17 minutes
In Italy, pasta dishes are commonly tossed with a light dressing rather than a heavy sauce. When served this way, all components of the dish play an important role in both flavor and texture.
Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 1/2 cups pasta and 1 tablespoon cheese)
