How to Make Spinach And Mushroom Alfredo Sauce

  1. Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Add 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring frequently, until browned and most of the liquid has evaporated (about 5-7 minutes).
  3. Add 1/2 medium onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced, to the pan. Sauté until softened and translucent (3-4 minutes).
  4. Stir in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, to create a light roux (about 2 minutes).
  5. Gradually whisk in 2 cups of milk, continuing to cook and stir occasionally until the sauce has thickened (about 5 minutes).
  6. Season with 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg. Stir in 5 ounces fresh spinach, chopped, and 1 1/2 cups grated Parmesan cheese. Cook, stirring constantly, until the spinach wilts and the sauce has thickened (about 2 minutes).
  7. Serve immediately over your favorite pasta or use as a lasagna filling.
