Lemon and Green Pea Pasta

This is a crazy easy, healthy and flavorful dish I made last night. And meat free:) I had left over lasagna noodles, already cooked, so I just cut them into little square pieces. Then I Added them to a sauce pan with a little butter, garlic, water-to help separate the noodles, peas, lemon juice, salt pepper and red pepper flakes; its that easy. You could totally make this wig meat if you wanted. I would do pancetta or chicken. You can also use any kind of pasta too. 

**Ingredients** 
1 cup of frozen peas 
1 cup pasta 
1-2 garlic cloves chopped 
1 tsp red pepper flakes 
1 tbsp water 
1 tbsp unsalted butter 
Juice of 1 lemon 
Parmesan cheese, grated 
Salt and Pepper to taste 
  1. Melt butter in a sauce pan, then add the peas, garlic, lemon juice and red pepper flakes. 
  2. Sauté for a min or so then add water and cooked pasta. Add salt and pepper to taste. 
  3. Toss to coat then plate in small bowl. 
  4. Top with grated Parmesan.
