Steak with Veggie Tomato Pasta

This pasta is so good. And different. You have a nice steak that is tender and flavorful. A little goes a long way so its not too terribly pricey. There are lots of layers of flavor. Lots of veggies and textures. So good.

You can easily substitute fresh green beans for the asparagus.

Ingredients

2-3 cups uncooked pasta. 
1- 1 1/2 lb boneless beef sirloin steak
