Any pasta dish is fabulous, but fettuccine is my hands down favorite.

Catherine, Much to my wife's dismay, I'm not into eating mushrooms. Too bad since we have a Monterrey Mushroom Plant about 15 minutes from here where you can buy a big bag of 'seconds' at the guard shack for about $5.00! My wife would really love to indulge in your pasta entree! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

Catherine, this looks so amazing. Love that you added mushrooms. I skipped breakfast and lunch(bad idea) and just had a second cup of coffee. So wish I was having a bowl of your fettuccini right now.

I've had Italy on my brain lately and since a trip is not on my schedule now (alas!) this will be my passport and ticket over. Looks wonderful!

Hi Catherine,
You know it's so funny, I never think to use Fettuccine unless I'm making Alfredo. I can see how the meatiness of the mushrooms and their natural juices would add a pleasant and aromatic flavor to the Fettuccine. Mushroms are quite abundant at the stores here in PA, "mushroom capital of the world" lol...I'll have to Pin this and be sure and give it a try. It would be a wonderful meatless Friday dinner.
Thank you so much for sharing, Catherine...
