Recipe  for Herby Mushroom Pasta ...

I hope you try this recipe for Herby Mushroom Pasta. The earthy taste of mushrooms really comes alive in this dish thanks to the herbs and lemon zest which are added after cooking. Mushrooms are nutrient-rich and contain those friendly little anti-oxidants. Make this recipe with anything but button white cap mushrooms as they arenโ€™t as tasty as field or chestnut, but a mix is even better. Pasta releases energy slowing so this makes a good filling low fat meal.
