--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2      teaspoons     Olive oil or margarine
     1/4  cup           Chopped onion
   1                    Garlic clove -- minced
     1/2  cup           Sliced fresh mushrooms
   1      cup           Tomato juice
     1/2  cup           Frozen tiny peas
   2      ounces        Fontina or mozzarella cheese -- shredded
     1/2  cup           Cooked ditalini or other tube macaroni
   5      teaspoons     Chopped fresh parsley
   1      dash          salt and pepper

In 1-quart saucepan heat oil; add onion and garlic and saute until onion is
translucent.  Add mushrooms and saute over high heat until mushrooms exude
liquid, about 2 minutes; add juice and bring to a boil.  Cook until sauce is
slightly thickened, about 15 minutes; add peas and cook, stirring
occasionally, for 3 minutes longer.  Add remaining ingredients and cook,
stirring, until cheese is melted.  Serve immediately.

Makes 2 servings.
