- Measuring spoons and cups
Ingredients
- 8 oz egg noodles or pasta of choice
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 12 oz mushrooms (such as cremini, white button, or a mix), sliced
- 1/2 cup vegetable broth
- 1 cup heavy cream or coconut cream (for a dairy-free option)
- 2 tablespoons sour cream (or vegan sour cream for dairy-free)
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Parmesan cheese (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
1. Cook the Pasta:
Cook the pasta according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
2. Sauté the Onions and Garlic:
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
3. Cook the Mushrooms:
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms release their moisture and become golden brown.
4. Make the Sauce:
Add the vegetable broth to the skillet and bring it to a simmer. Stir in the heavy cream, sour cream, and Dijon mustard. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let the sauce simmer for 5-7 minutes until it thickens slightly.
5. Combine the Pasta and Sauce:
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat in the creamy mushroom sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash more vegetable broth or cream to loosen it up.
6. Serve and Garnish:
