A single serving of this pasta contains approximately 350-400 calories, primarily from the pasta, cream, and butter. The exact amount can vary based on the specific ingredients used.
Pasta is best served fresh. However, you can make the mushroom sauce ahead of time and store it in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat the sauce gently and toss with freshly cooked pasta.
Ensure you simmer the sauce for a few minutes to allow it to thicken. Also, adding a splash of the starchy pasta water helps the sauce cling to the pasta and creates a creamier texture.
Fresh thyme or chives would be a wonderful addition. Add thyme along with the garlic to release its flavor, and stir in chives at the end with the parsley.
