Ingredients

Servings:4
  • 12 ounces Ziti pasta
  • 16 ounces Cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup Heavy cream
  • 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
  • 1/2 cup Vegetable broth
  • 1 to taste Salt and black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

  2. 2

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the ziti until just al dente, about 2 minutes less than package directions.

  3. 3

    While the pasta cooks, melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the mushrooms until browned and moisture has evaporated.

  4. 4

    Add the minced garlic and thyme to the mushrooms, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.

  5. 5

    Stir in the heavy cream and vegetable broth, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.

  6. 6

    Drain the pasta and toss it directly into the skillet with the mushroom cream sauce and half of the mozzarella and Parmesan.

  7. 7

    Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and top with the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.

  8. 8

    Bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown on top.
