Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta al dente according to package directions.
  2. Meanwhile, in a skillet, melt the butter and olive oil over medium heat.
  3. Cut the asparagus into roughly 1.5" pieces. Add the asparagus to the pan and cook for 3-5 minutes (depending on thickness of asparagus).
  4. Add the mushrooms to the skillet and cook for a few minutes, until the mushrooms are softened.
