Whole Wheat Penne with Asparagus and Marinara Sauce
"Our house gets crazy on weeknights, and the last thing that I want to do is spend a lot of time in the kitchen preparing dinner. I am always looking for new weeknight dinner ideas, especially healthy recipes that I can feel good about serving to my family. That is why I love a quick and easy dinner recipe like this 20-minute pasta with asparagus. I paired whole wheat penne with asparagus and New RAGÚ® Simply Chunky Marinara Pasta Sauce for a healthy dinner option that comes together in under a half hour."

Coming from an Italian family, I used to avoid buying whole wheat pasta since I thought of it as a diet food. Now that I've been incorporating it into dishes like this, I have come to enjoy it's slightly nutty flavor. Also, it tends to keep it's "al dente" texture without the risk of it overcooking and becoming mushy.
