Sauteed Mushrooms (2 WW pts)
Growing up I didn’t really like mushrooms. They were weird. Now I can’t get enough. I do mushrooms this way and throw them on just about anything.
Sauteed Mushrooms
1 package pre-cut baby-bella mushrooms – washed and patted dry
White wine
Sliced or diced onion (optional)
Garlic
Olive Oil
I don’t really measure what I’m doing when I do mushrooms, but here’s my attempt at directions: Heat olive oil in a skillet. Add minced garlic cloves and onion. Once garlic starts to brown, add mushrooms to skillet. Once the mushrooms start look cooked, add white wine and reduce heat. Simmer until wine reduces.

Thanks! I hope you enjoyed the pasta.
I made this tonight and it was truly one of the worse things I’ve made; the sauce was really chunky and dry, and stuck in my throat every time I took a bite, and the garlic made it even drier. I would not recommend this to anyone.
This is very good. Leaving some of the pasta water is important, as well as adding the olive oil. Grating the beet into the pasta made a gorgeous colored magenta. Eating pasta right away prevents drying out. An optional addition could be adding a can of coconut milk to make a pink saucy dish. Topped with nuts and cheese, yes!
