Food Friday

I am a sucker for a great pasta sauce...I am also a sucker for mushrooms and sun dried tomatoes.  Add these together and you have got a beautiful thing going! And I must say, it's pretty darn close to a new sauce that they have at Olive Garden right now too!  Yummy!   Sorry, I don't have a picture for this one...I was too one track minded to think to take a picture! (Yes, it's that good!)  Well, here it is.  

Sun dried Tomato and Mushroom Cream Sauce

Ingredients:
1 cup mushrooms
½ cup chopped onions
4 tablespoons butter
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
¼ cup chopped sun dried tomatoes
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
1.         Sauté mushrooms and onions in 1 tablespoon butter until onions are translucent.  Set aside.
2.         Heat the cream and remaining butter in a saucepan over medium heat until almost boiling, but do not boil. Add mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses, and stir until melted. Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes and mushroom mixture, season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and serve over pasta.
