Asparagus Cream Cheese Fettuccini image

Only 5 ingredients and just a few minutes to prepare if using fresh pasta. I guess you can use regular pasta but it will take a few more minutes. In the recipe, it's Moutarde a l'ancienne. Recipezaar can't find that. Ancienne means old. So I wrote old mustard. The brand Maille has this mustard.
