Ingredients
  

  • 14 ounces linguine pasta To make this recipe gluten-free I use Tinkyada Brown Rice Fettuccine.
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
  • ½ large onion Finely chopped
  • 8 ounces mushrooms Sliced. I like baby bellas for this recipe but white mushrooms or button mushrooms will also work.
  • ½ pound deli counter roast beef Cut into strips or 1 inch pieces. If your grocery store carries Boar's Head London Broil, I highly recommend it. It's a little pricier than the alternatives but the flavor is incredible. It's worth the splurge.
  • 15 ounce jar of Alfredo Sauce Another spurge for this recipe is Raos Creamy Alfredo Sauce. It's not absolutely necessary because the blue cheese will add big flavor to the dish but if you're up for the splurge, it really does taste homemade.
  • 4 ounces crumbled blue cheese
  • ½ ounce fresh chives or fresh parsley Chopped (optional garnish)

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the linguine according to the directions on the package, drain and rinse and set aside while you prepare the sauce.
  • Melt the oil in a sauce pan on medium heat
  • Add the onions and sauté for 2-3 minutes or until they start to turn translucent.
  • Add the mushrooms and beef and sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes. Turn off heat and set aside.
  • Heat the Alfredo sauce on medium-low heat until it's warm.
  • Toss the cooked pasta with the Alfredo sauce. Serve by placing the linguine coated with Alfredo sauce on the plate. Top with the beef/onion/mushroom mixture. Sprinkle about 1-2 tablespoons of crumbled blue cheese and about a teaspoon of chopped chives (optional) on top.
