Creamy(less) Mushroom Spaghetti

One-pot dishes are never really something to complain about. There’s such merit in minimal washing up that we would sometimes sacrifice the quality of our dishes if it meant less washing up after the cooking. Well, there’s nothing poor about the quality of this delicious one pot dish!

Creamy(less) Mushroom Spaghetti 🍝 Recipe is now on foodanatomist.com or through my bio! 😆 Plant-based and delicious 😋 ⁣ ⁣ After aubergines, mushrooms are my favourite vegetable for their unique taste and their meaty texture. I’m a sucker for creamy dishes, and I find mushrooms always compliment them. Mushrooms being packed with lots of goodness have never worried me when eaten in big consumption; it’s the copious amounts of dairy cream that I ate with them that has always spurred the guilt.⁣ ⁣ Because of this, I’ve decided to whip together a fantastic dinner combination which comes out just as creamy as a risotto, but with wholegrain spaghetti instead, and without any dairy! #foodanatomist
