Grilled Portabello and Garlic Pasta

This is my go to pasta recipe! I absolutely enjoy making this because it is extremely simple. Most of the time you can find the ingredients in your pantry. If you do opt to try this and go to the store you would not be spending much to make this meal. However, it is heavy on the garlic and onion side, but if you want to add less that works too.

The great part of this recipe is that if you are not a big fan of mushrooms just add any other type of protein you prefer. You can add a seared steak to it, perhaps grilled chicken breast!

My favorite part of cooking is making recipes that people can enjoy or they can add or take away from the recipe if they don't like something I used. I know not everyone will enjoy having this as a vegan option, but the great part of it is if you are experimenting into turning vegetarian or vegan this is an easy meal to put together at home. Plus it looks fancy as well so you can easily impress that special someone!

  3. @Susi: Portabello mushrooms and Garlic are two of my favorite things to eat. I mean sounds like a strong smelly dish from the garlic, but garlic really brings out tons of flavor!

  6. I would love this, but my wife wouldn't--she won't eat mushrooms. I'm cutting way back on meat and she seems determined to make me eat it. It's a strange thing.

  7. Yum! I love how meaty portabellos are and what amazing flavour they have. I can just imagine how good this pasta smells cooking.

  8. This looks wonderful! I love garlic so would definitely use the entire amount suggested. :) And the addition of the grilled portabello is awesome. I might even brush a bit of balsamic on it before grilling - balsamic grilled mushrooms are one of my favorite!

  13. @Rick: Hah. I have always enjoyed mushrooms but it's funny that my boyfriend is not fond of them. He's vegan and so I learned to be able to adapt to how he eats. I was determined to become vegetarian at one point, but I don't think that I have the will power to do it just yet. I always end up grabbing a burger once in a while.

    Mushrooms are sooooo good too! They're great replacements or subs for meat haha
