Here is how you make Angel hair with peas and faux cream sauce:

*Makes 4 - 3/4 cup side servings or 2 - 1.5 cup entree servings. Nutritional info reflects side serving portions.*1. In large pot, heat salted water. Cook angel hair per instructions, adding frozen peas during last couple minutes. Drain, reserving 1/2 a cup of the pasta water to use if sauce is too thick. 2. Meanwhile, over medium-low heat, melt butter and olive oil together. Add garlic, cooking until aromatic but not brown, 2-3 minutes. Add flour slowly, stirring well so that it forms a paste. Let cook 2-3 minutes or until paste turns light brown. 3. Whisk in milk, being sure to stir out any clumps. Continue to cook until milk bubbles and reduces by about half, approximately 5 minutes. Add parsley, salt, and pepper to taste. Turn off heat, then stir in the Parmesan cheese a little at a time. 4. Add the pasta and peas to the sauce, tossing to coat. If the sauce is too thick, slowly add a little of the reserved pasta water at a time until the sauce approaches desired consistency. I serve with a baked chicken breast to round out the meal.
