Meatless Monday - Lemon Pasta
Making dishes that seem gourmet but are really easy is the best. If you are entertaining an easy meal that doesn't taste easy to make is impressive and relaxing and a very nice meal after a hard day at work is a great reward. This is one of those dishes. Don't tell anyone how easy it is.
While the water is boiling mix the olive oil, lemon juice, mushrooms, salt, and garlic in a large serving bowl (preferably hand made). When the pasta is done cooking place it in the bowl, top with cheese, lemon zest and about 2/3 of the herbs. Toss well, top with the remainder of the herbs. Serve.

ReplyDeleteyou could put garlic, lemon, parsley and cheese on a shoe and I might eat it.

You make shoes sound so tasty.
