Strawberry Pasta

This recipe was in a book given to me by my best friend.  I initially thought that strawberries in pasta would be weird.  Turns out, it was delicious.

Ingredients

• 1 pint fresh strawberries
• 1/2 pound spaghetti
• 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• Mint for garnish

1. Puree strawberries in a blender.  Strain to remove the seeds.
2. Cook the spaghetti according to the directions.  Drain.  Toss with the cheese.
3. Heat the butter and the cream in a small saucepan.
4. Move the pasta to a serving bowl.  Cover with the strawberry puree.
5. Pour the creamy butter mixture over that.
6. Toss gently and top with additional parmesan cheese.
7. Garnish with mint.
