💭 Recipe tips
Button mushrooms can be swapped out for your preferred mushrooms. Always opt for fresh over tinned. If tinned is your only option, thoroughly wash the mushrooms to rid of unwanted citric acid
Use your favourite type of pasta, this spaghetti from San Remo is featured in this recipe, however you could use a gluten-free pasta if your diet calls for this. Just follow the instructions as directed
Don't be afraid to adjust quantities to suit your taste, i.e., want more mushrooms? Go for it!
This meal can be stored for approx. 5 days in the fridge or up to 3 months in the freezer, therefore making meal prep so easy
😜 Recipe Variations
