Ingredients

2 (15 ounce) cans asparagus
1 (2.25 ounce) can sliced black olives
½ pound fettuccini pasta
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 large portobello mushrooms, sliced
1 (8 ounce) can peas, drained
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning

Steps:

Fill a large pot with water and the drained liquids of the asparagus and the olives; bring to a boil. Cook pasta for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente. Drain.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute mushrooms, peas, and Italian seasoning until mushrooms are tender.
