Thank you Karla! That’s an excellent substitution tip, yogurt for sour cream. And broccoli is DELICIOUS in this recipe, as well as spinach. I’ve learned to make extra, too, just so we can enjoy it again for lunch the next day.
Charles, my husband, says it really good for a take to work lunch, easy to reheat in the microwave.

This recipe is SO good! My husband substituted plain yogurt for the sour cream since I am lactose intolerant and added broccoli. I couldn’t stop picking out of the serving bowl at the end of the meal. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

YEAAAH!!!
Thank you James!

I use this sauce quite often; over ravioli, with roasted shrimp, and with my favorite, spinach.
It’s all good!

Just made this for the rest of my housemates, three of us (not very picky at all) and it went down an absolute treat. Excellent recipe and very easy to make.

Hi Jen!

I don’t we can go wrong when we start adding cheese to anything. Thank you for reminding me to do that next time.

Isn’t it awesome to find a recipe your picky eaters LOVE? Hallalooya!

This recipe is awesome! I added a little more garlic and some shredded Parmesan cheese too. My family loved it, including my VERY picky kids. I made a double batch and we ate it again last night. It was even better the second day!

Thank you Kacie!
I love portabellas too. (Oh, who am I kidding? I love every mushroom I’ve ever tried.)
That’s a great idea using them. I’m gonna try those next time I make this meal. Of coarse, my family is not as crazy about mushrooms as I am, so I’ll have to make a special plate for me.

Did you do anything to the mushrooms before adding them to the cream sauce?

I just made a Vegetarian version of the recipe with baby portabellas (http://gaucheandgluttonous.blogspot.com/2008/08/creamy-pasta-with-mushrooms.html) and it turned out great! I just wanted to thank you for sharing such a fantastic recipe.

[...] recipe is very close to the Creamy Penne Pasta and Chicken dinner, except I was completely out of garlic and chicken broth. I improvised with yellow onion and [...]

I topped it with sauteed spinach & parmesan, that was ROCKIN!
