Ingredients
  

8 oz (225g) fettuccine or spaghetti

2 cups mushrooms, sliced (button, cremini, or a mix)

1 small onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup vegetable broth

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp dried thyme or 1 tbsp fresh thyme

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Sauté the Vegetables: In a large pot or deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, cooking until the mushrooms are browned and all moisture has evaporated, approximately 7-8 minutes.

    Add Pasta and Liquids: Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a gentle simmer. Add the fettuccine (or spaghetti) and thyme, ensuring the noodles are submerged. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

      Cooking the Pasta: Allow the pasta to cook according to package instructions, stirring occasionally, until al dente and most of the liquid has been absorbed, about 9-11 minutes.

        Create the Creamy Sauce: Reduce the heat to low. Stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese, mixing until the cheese has melted and the sauce is creamy. If the sauce is too thick, you can add a splash more of vegetable broth or water to achieve your desired consistency.

          Final Seasoning: Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or fresh herbs if desired.

            Serve: Remove from heat, garnish with freshly chopped parsley, and serve hot. Enjoy your delicious creamy mushroom pasta!
