So today, I made pasta. I bought oyster mushrooms, a jar of alfredo sauce, fresh dill weed, onions, and penne. What I did was saute the minced onions and oyster mushrooms until they were tender, and then I added the chopped dill weed and one-half teaspoon of nutmeg. I also added a half of a jar of olives that I still had in my refrigerator. Finally, when everything seemed cooked, I added the jar of alfredo sauce, and rinsed the jar with a little milk, and added that as well. Finally, I added salt and pepper to the sauce.
Now, when I eat this, I would sprinkle a little grated Parmesan cheese. That would be awesome. I like oyster mushrooms a lot, they are meaty, heavy, and yet exotic. So there you have it, a meatless pasta in cream sauce.

Sounds good...no picture of the final results?
ReplyDeleteMushrooms are very healthy !
Looks like we are missing a glas of red wine here to make it parfect.
Sidney,
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, my camera was unavailable at that time. Next time I will plan this better. And yes, I agree that a glass of wine would do well as a pairing, but I am not a big wine fan; it gives me terrible hangovers.
I often cook meatless pasta with plenty of veggies. I don't really feel the need to eat meat, but I crave steak like once a year.
ReplyDeleteI rarely bake... I like to cook best.
Zhu,
ReplyDeleteThat makes the two of us!
