CREAMY PENNE PASTA WITH HAM AND PEAS
I tried to copy a wonderful dish I had at a small local Italian restaurant and this one turned out WONDERFUL (for a lot less money too!) The flavors are excellent and it's a totally new way to use up leftover ham. The crispy ham reminds me of pancetta. This is a very forgiving recipe and many different vegetables can be added to your liking, try sauteed zucchini with the peas, or mushrooms, broccoli, etc.

PENNE WITH PEAS, HAM AND CHEESE
No cook sauce that tastes like you spent some time on it. Any hard cheese will work, parmesan and peccarino both have worked well for me. Can lighten the dish using part skim ricotta if desired. Simple, easy and delicious. From Mark Bittmans "How to Cook Everything" with adaptions for our taste. This recipe can be halved to serve 2 people generously.

PENNE WITH PEAS, PEA GREENS AND PARMESAN
Many farmers who sell peas also sell the shoots and tendrils that grow with them. They're sweet, light and nourishing, especially when you serve them along with peas.

Steps:
- Begin heating a large pot of water for the pasta. Meanwhile, steam the peas over an inch of boiling water for 4 minutes, until just tender. Transfer to a bowl. Add the pea shoots to the steamer and steam 2 minutes, until just wilted. Remove from the heat and allow to cool until you can handle them. Do not discard the steaming water; pour it into a measuring cup. Squeeze out excess water from the pea greens and chop medium-fine. You should have about 1 cup chopped leaves and tender stems.
- Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet and add the chopped spring onion or scallions. Cook, stirring, until wilted, about 3 minutes. Add the pea shoots and stir together for about a minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the peas, tarragon and parsley and about 1/4 cup of the steaming water and heat through.
- When the water in the pot comes to a boil, salt generously and add the pasta. Cook al dente, using the timing instructions on the package as a guide but checking the pasta a minute before the time indicated is up. When the pasta is ready, using a ladle transfer 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water to the pan with the peas and pea shoots. Drain the pasta and toss at once with the vegetables and Parmesan. Serve hot.
