CREAMY CAMPANELLE WITH HAM AND MUSHROOMS

Creamy Campanelle with Ham and Mushrooms image

This is one of my go-to recipes for leftover spiral ham. I like it with a bite-sized pasta as opposed to fettuccini because I like to have it all mixed together and serve it in a bowl.

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) box campanelle pasta
¼ cup butter
½ cup diced onions
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound fresh mushrooms, chopped
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons dried basil
2 teaspoons dried parsley
2 ½ cups diced ham
1 ½ cups heavy cream
1 cup spaghetti sauce
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste

Steps:

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook pasta in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, for 1 minute less than the package recommends, 6 to 9 minutes. Drain.
Meanwhile, melt butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in mushrooms, oregano, basil, and parsley. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid from the mushrooms has evaporated. Stir in the ham and cook until heated through, 4 to 5 minutes.
Pour in heavy cream and bring to a boil. Slowly stir in spaghetti sauce and cayenne. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce has reduced a bit. Add cooked pasta to pan (if your saute pan is too small, transfer pasta and mushroom ham blend into the pan you cooked the pasta in). Cook so that sauce thickens a bit more, pasta finishes cooking, and the entire dish has melded together, about 5 minutes more.
