14ounceslinguine pastaTo make this recipe gluten-free I use Tinkyada Brown Rice Fettuccine.
2tablespoonsolive oil or butter
½large onionFinely chopped
8ouncesmushroomsSliced. I like baby bellas for this recipe but white mushrooms or button mushrooms will also work.
½pounddeli counter roast beefCut 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.
15ouncejar of Alfredo SauceAnother 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.
4ouncescrumbled blue cheese
½ouncefresh chives or fresh parsleyChopped (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.
