• 2 tablespoons finely chopped red onions
• 2 1/2 cups diagonally sliced asparagus, tough ends removed
• 1 teaspoon mashed and chopped baked garlic (see note)

2. Remove from heat, and spray with vegetable oil spray.
3. Add onion, and saute until limp--5-10 minutes.

7. In a small bowl, add 2 tablespoons of this sauce to the cream cheese, and stir until smooth.
8. Return this mixture to the hot sauce.
9. Add parmesan, and stir until melted.
10. Keep hot.
11. If the mixture gets too thick, thin it out with small amounts of skim milk.
12. Cook fettucine according to package directions.
13. Add hot pasta and garlic and vegetables to the sauce in the skillet.
14. Stir and cook over medium-low heat until heated through.
15. Serve garnished with chopped arugula.
