Portabella Strogonoff

PortabellaMy kids love pasta. I love pasta too, however my waistline does not love pasta. Over the past six months we have had pasta only a handful of times. I am trying to make healthy meals for my family and often pasta does not fall into the healthy category. In an effort to compromise I searched high and low for healthy pasta recipes and found one that I was able to make work for my family.

If y0u love pasta and portabella mushrooms you will love this recipe.

I used all organic ingredients. I used Organic egg noodles, they look a little funny but taste great. The total cost of this meal was $12.00. The total calorie count is 2052. This recipe makes about 6 servings for a calorie count of 342 per serving.

We had enough for the family and had leftovers for both Caleb and I to have lunch the next day.
