How to Make Creamy Mushroom And Almond Pasta

  1. Cook 1 pound pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water according to package directions.

  3. Add 1 tablespoon fresh sage leaves, 1/2 cup slivered almonds, and 2 cloves minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
  4. Pour in 1/4 cup dry sherry (optional), 1 cup beef or vegetable stock, 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Bring to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the sauce has slightly thickened.
  6. Add the cooked and drained pasta to the skillet and toss gently to coat.
  7. Serve immediately, topped with 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
