This is a comforting pasta dish full of hot fettuccine noodles that have been tossed in a light cream sauce with oodles of sauteed mushrooms and chicken. My husband and I love pasta like there’s no tomorrow. That’s not such a great thing, I guess… but when it’s made with delicious ingredients, who can resist?? This Chicken Mushroom Fettuccine is one of our favorite dishes to make for dinner.
My husband and I happily gobble up every bite of this pasta when we make it for dinner. My son refuses to eat mushrooms, so he’s not into this one. I’m thankful that he’s beginning to eat tomatoes… and that he’s fairly willing to try most other vegetables, but I just can’t get him to eat those darn mushrooms. Oh well, more for me! I keep telling him that someday he will LOVE mushrooms. He does not believe me- ha!
If you’re a mushroom lover, then this Chicken Mushroom Fettuccine dish is for you. And if you’re not a mushroom lover, you can certainly push them aside or leave them out.

Mushrooms are one of my favorite veggies! Gotta try this 🙂
This is a meal right up my alley. The more mushrooms the better, and the light cream sauce sounds fantastic! Pinned.
We love pasta! This looks delicious!!
I’ll take his share. LOVE this!
I just got a pasta attachment for my KitchenAid and have been searching for a perfect fettuccine recipe. I think I just found it!
Yum – thank you.
Dang, that looks awesome. We all love mushrooms. Going into town today so I’ll be getting what I need to make this.
I hated mushrooms until I was about 20, and now I can’t get enough. I’m sure your son will be inhaling this soon enough 🙂 This is creamy, dreamy comfort food Lori (PS. I love your redesign too!)
There is oodles of goodness in these noodles (had to!) I recently learned that I actually LOVE mushrooms, so this dinner is totally what I am dreaming about going face-first into tonight! Pinned!
If I had to pick a dream pasta, it would be a creamy one full of mushrooms just like this. Your son is missing out! (My kids won’t eat them either.) Looks amazing!
