Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp olive oil
1 lb portabella mushroom, stems removed, caps halved and then cut into 1/4-inch slices
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 cup white wine
1 tsp minced garlic
1 1/4 cups chicken broth (preferably low-sodium )
5 1/2 oz pepper boursin cheese ( garlic and herb also works if pepper is unavailable)
1 lb asparagus ( broccoli or sugar snap peas are also good choices)
3/4 lb medium pasta shell
grated parmesan cheese , to taste

Directions:

Snap the tough ends off the asparagus and discard them. Cut the spears into 1/2 inch pieces.
Melt butter with the oil over medium heat in a large frying pan.
Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally until the mushrooms are tender and well browned, about 6 minutes. Add salt, pepper and garlic. Stir and reduce heat to medium/medium low.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat chicken broth. Once lightly boiling, add in Boursin cheese and white wine, stirring with a fork to help melt cheese. Lower heat and simmer to thicken. If not using pepper Boursin, add 1/4 tsp black pepper. Once the cheese is fully incorporated to the liquids, add sauce to mushrooms, stir and simmer.
In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the pasta until almost done, about 6 minutes.
Add the asparagus and cook until it and the pasta are just done, about 3-4 minutes longer. (If using broccoli add with 2 minutes left to go, snap peas about 1 1/2 min).
Drain the pasta. Toss with the mushrooms and sauce. Season to taste.
Serve with Parmesan cheese on side. Enjoy!
