Ingredients

  • 12 ounces of your favorite pasta (spaghetti, fettuccine, or any you like)
  • 2 cups of mushrooms, sliced (cremini or button mushrooms work great)
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 cup of vegetable broth
  • 1 cup of coconut cream (or any plant-based cream)
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • Red pepper flakes (optional, for a little kick)

Instructions

  1. First things first, put a big pot of salted water on to boil for your pasta. Cook it according to the package instructions until it’s al dente.
  2. While the pasta is cooking, heat that olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Toss in the diced onion and sauté until it turns translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Next up, add in the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms. Stir ’em around until those mushrooms get tender and start to brown, which should take about 7-8 minutes.
  4. Pour in the vegetable broth, bring it to a simmer and let those flavors meld together for a few minutes.
  5. Now, it’s time to add the coconut cream, stir it in, and let it bubble away. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if you’re feelin’ spicy!
  6. Once your pasta is done, drain it and toss it into the skillet with the creamy mushroom sauce. Mix it up until everything’s well combined and coated.
  7. Finally, plate it up, sprinkle some fresh parsley on top, and there you have it—a delightful creamy mushroom pasta that’s sure to impress!

This dish is comforting, creamy, and packed with flavor, just like a hug from someone you love. Enjoy your meal and share the love!
