Tagliatelle with Portobello Mushroom and Mangetout Casserole

That's a long name isn't it? But I can reassure you the taste is as just yummy! The smell of the dry basilic is still lingering in my nose! I don't really have much to say about this recipe since, I just happened to gather what I already had at home and came up with this! A little bit creamy, but dry as well since it's a casserole, very well seasoned...scrumptious!

Try it out and let me know your thoughts!

Happy Baking!
