I know posting a pasta recipe straight after my courgetti recipe is probably bad planning on my part, but that’s how these things work out sometimes. This garlic mushroom pasta recipe is rich in flavour and full of vitamins. An easy dish perfect for the whole family to enjoy.
This dish is also very easy to make in bulk for meal prep and is freezer friendly if you need some ‘just in case’ options. You could easily have this dish hot or cold, so it works for summer picnics and buffet tables too.
I added sundried tomatoes to the tomato sauce to give it a richer, fuller bodied taste and roasted peppers to add a hint of sweetness. Seasoning wise, obviously I wanted to keep the garlic as the main flavour so kept the other seasonings minimal. But, no tomato pasta dish is complete without some oregano and a pinch of chilli. At least none of mine are…

I have some pasta left over that I want to cook, so I am going to try this one. Thanks for the recipe. Also I prefer my pasta hot 😉
After reading so many posts of yours extolling lentil pasta I can’t believe I still haven’t tried it! This sounds yummy though, we all love garlic mushrooms (even Flora, at the moment anyway) and the fact you can freeze and reserve is a bonus on school nights. Delicious, thank you, Sophie! Lisa x
This looks delicious! I must admit I am also a huge lentil pasta fan – it’s so much tastier than other GF pastas and one of the few ways I really enjoy lentils 🙂
I would probably eat this cold personally, but then I love cold pasta dishes for lunches.
Personally I’d do it hot. But I’d eat it cold too. Anything with garlic in and I’m here for it!

Pasta dishes are my absolute favourite! And anything that involves garlic is definitely a favourite of mine. This dish looks so yummy and it’s really great that it’s not too complicated! X
I’ve been loving garlic mushrooms lately, especially with hummus on toast, so this recipe sounds amazing. Nothing beats a good bowl of pasta, hot or cold! I have all of them ingredients as well! Can’t wait to try! x
I love going overboard on the garlic whenever I use it in cooking I love it so much! I think my favourite pasta dish is either carbonara, or I make my own pesto with rocket and LOADS of garlic, so pasta with that mixed it ☺️
Hello!
I really love pasta! Your recipe seems absolutely delicious and I will try it!
TopBeautyWoman –
I would definitely serve this hot, possibly with some avocado on the side for an even creamier texture. I love the tart taste of sundried tomatoesso I’d definitely give this a go!
Pasta is an absolute must in our house, it is also perfect for lunches!

Very good recipe ❤
I love mushrooms, garlic, and pasta so I will be trying this for sure! I think I would serve it both, like once I first cook it then it will be hot, and anytime after it then it will be cold.
Mmm, you can never go wrong with pasta! Love that there are so many different ways to prepare it. I LOVE garlic and adding it into pasta gives it that extra kick. I like that there are different positive nutritional values from this dish. Thanks for sharing the recipe – I like that you don’t really have to substitute ingredients here. Everything is good as it is! I would probably serve the dish warm with crispy pasta, hehe.

This looks so amazing and easy to make.
This sounds amazing, I’m a big fan of mushroom pasta, and I add garlic to a lot of things so I’m sure I’d love this. I like having pasta both hot and cold, but I think I prefer it served warm. My favourite pasta dish at the moment is a creamy mushroom pasta – got inspired by the game Overcooked 2 and craved a creamy mushroom pasta so found a recipe online and made it hehe.

This looks delicious! I will definitely be trying this soon. I love garlic and roasted peppers – and obviously pasta is always a win. Yum!
I’ve yet to try lentil pasta but would like to – are there any brands or shops you particularly recommend?
