Prosciutto Pasta Toss

1 16-oz pkg. linguine or spaghetti
½ cup frozen peas
2 Tbsp. minced garlic
1 Tbsp. Italian seasoning
1 tsp. pepper
¼ cup olive oil
½ pound thinly sliced prosciutto, chopped*
¼ cup shredded parmesan cheese

Cook pasta according to package directions, adding peas during the last 3 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a large skillet, sauté the garlic, Italian seasoning and pepper in oil for 2-3 minutes or until garlic is tender. Stir in prosciutto.

Drain pasta, add to skillet and toss to coat. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese

*the prosciutto is found near the deli by the gourmet cheeses. It looks like packaged cooked bacon. Deli ham can be substituted instead.
