Do you add the onions with the garlic and mushroom at the beginning or afterward with the rest of the ingredients?
with the garlic and mushrooms! I’ve edited that now, our error! Sorry!
Loved this! i subbed the half & half with coconut cream because that’s what i had on hand and it was still so yummy. My 1 year old liked it too – BONUS!
thank you so much angel!
Is there a substitute for vegetable bouillon paste I could use? We don’t seem to have that in grocery stores here.
just use vegetable stock! don’t use water!
You can also look for the granules or the cubes. It just has to be reconstituted with water. You can use a stock, it just won’t be nearly as flavorful, unless you add the granules/cubes to it. A broth would also be a nice substitute.
very very very good
This recipe was amazing! Made it for dinner tonight and it did not disappoint. So creamy, warm and tasty. It really hit the spot! I didn’t have parm on hand so I used gruyère which was perfect. I will definitely be making this again!
thank you so much for the love hun I am so glad you loved this!
This mushroom pasta was not only delicious but was fast, easy and a quick clean up job since it’s a one pot meal. I can’t eat a ton of dairy so the small amount of half and half was appealing when choosing this recipe and didn’t cause me any trouble. I added broccoli which was a perfect addition in my opinion. I will be adding this recipe to our rotation.
amazing!!! this makes me so happy and broccoli with this does sounds PERFECT!
