Creamy Mushroom Pasta

How would I describe this mushroom pasta? It’s creamy, packed with flavours, and filling. How do I feel when I eat this glory? That’s a different story.

First, I can’t tell there’s no dairy in this recipe because what I taste resembles cream and cheese. What matters to me the most is that two servings later, I don’t fall into that food coma. I bet that after eating something flavourful and savoury like pasta, you often say: Oh, I shouldn’t have eaten so much. You won’t feel that way after eating this epic mushroom pasta, and that’s what makes the difference.
