Notes
If the pasta looks too dry, add up to 1 more cup liquid. How much liquid you need really depends on the kind of pasta you use and how you like your sauce!This is how I make the pasta for my young kids. For more flavor, add a chopped onion along with the mushrooms. You can also add ground black pepper, chopped parsley and some grated lemon zest after cooking.
