Flutterbyes With Peas And Ham Recipe

	Snufflebunny15 / All my dishes 1 year, 2 months ago Mom always made me farfalle with Uncle Dom's swiss cheese, ham and peas. I had a little trouble saying farfalle, so she called it flutterbies to entice me to eat something different than elbow mac and cheese. Ummm, serves two teenagers.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups of half and half

8 ounces of bow tie pasta (I use whole wheat or the new enriched if I can find it, or I sub spinach fettucini noodles)

1 pkg of baby peas, thawed, never canned, those are gross

3 tbsp of butter

2 tbsp of flour

6 slices of deli ham, rolled up and sliced into shreds

1/2 cup of grated swiss

1/4 cup of grated asiago cheese

salt and pepper

(mom said to grate fresh nutmeg, I say get real...don't have it)

Directions

Cook noodles of choice in lots of boiling always salted water.

heat the half and half, keep warm.

Melt butter and stir in flour, cook a minute, add warm milk and stir very fast with a whisk. cook until it thickens and bubbles.

Add the cheese by handsful and stir well after each addition.

finally add the peas, ham to warm up and taste and add salt and pepper.

Drain the noodles as dry as you possibly can pour the sauce over top and shake it up to mix.

Eat. If you want sprinkle with more cheese or with parmesan. Sometimes I'll add just a pinch of red pepper flakes if I have em. Um, I've been known to add a packet of "fire" hot taco sauce to the mix without any harm done to anyone. Depends on if there are any packets in the junk drawer.
