I’ve been getting a lot of requests for pasta recipes lately so I though this would be a nice addition to my recipes. I love pasta, but I try not to eat it too often because it’s high in points. When I do make pasta, I use a lot of vegetables and less pasta so it becomes filling without all the extra points. Any mushrooms would be great for this recipe, or even a combination of a variety of mushrooms. Simple and ready in under 15 minutes.
Spaghetti with Mushrooms, Garlic and Oil
Yield: 4 servings
Serving Size: 1 /4 of recipe
Ingredients
- 12 oz baby bella mushrooms
- 3 cloves garlic, smashed and chopped
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- crushed red pepper flakes
- 1/4 cup white wine
- 1/2 lb uncooked spaghetti, 8 oz
- 2 tbsp parsley, finely chopped
- salt and fresh pepper
Instructions
- Cook pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water according to package directions.
- Meanwhile, heat oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat.
- Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook until soft, about 1 minute.
- Add the sliced mushrooms, salt and pepper and sauté about 2 minutes.
- Add white wine and cook another 3 minutes.
- Before draining the pasta reserve 1/4 cup of the pasta water.
- Drain pasta and toss with mushrooms, parsley and pepper.
- If pasta is too dry, add a little of the reserved pasta water.
- Serve with grated cheese if you wish.

Had some fresh fish to grill and decided to have this and ST green beans with caramelized onions as the sides. It was a perfect meal. Both were so good. Always use Gina as my search for finding the best recipes. Once again, thank you!
Thanks Catherine!
Loved this ! Made it exactly as stated . Absolutely deliciousÂ
Can I make this the day before?  Headed to a potluck Saturday  and need an easy pasta recipe that will serve 8. Â
Its best to make and eat right away.
I made this last night and absolutely loved it! You have been a lifesaver for me Gina. Over the years I have yo-yo dieted off and on. WW, Nutrisystem, low carb and I never stick with anything. I recently started Weight Watchers again and I am determined to make it work. I am down 8 lbs. and going strong. One of the biggest reasons is because of your recipes. I have three of your books and pore over them and your website each day to choose what I want to make for dinner. Â My family and I eat very well and are all happy with your recipes. Thank you so much for what you do!!!!!
Thanks Teri! Glad to be part of your journey!

Bravo Gina! Â I just keep finding new amazing recipes that I have not tried! Â Thank you!
We make your chicken parmesan and use this pasta recipe in place of regular spaghetti underneath the chicken parm. The combined dish is in our recipe rotation at least once a week, if not twice. We love it, it's delicious!
Can I add Italian Sausage to this recipe ?
Somehow came across this recipe in a search for vegan pasta mushroom dish. Tried it last night just how you say to make it and it was YUMMY! Delicately seasoned but also very zesty due to the generous garlic and use of red pepper flakes. Anyway, just wanted to say thank you for the simple delish recipe 🙂
I served this tonight with zucchini sticks and the chicken parmisan. It was a huge, huge hit. My boyfriend even made a point to say "the noodles are so good, you could make them by theirselves." He is so spoiled he didn't even know that they are meant to be served that way. lol
Thank you for making my possible dinner selections so easy.
Hi Gina,
I made this tonight and it was really yummy 🙂 I'm a college student so I didn't use expensive wine (Franzia haha). And, I added extra red pepper for a kick. But, it was great! Thanks for your awesome blog.
I made this recipe tonight and it was AMAZING!! I used Sutter Home Moscato and I didn't have baby bellas so I cut up larger caps. It turned out really well. I have loved every recipe off this sight so far!! Can't wait to try the next one!!
Hi Gina. I'd love to add something "green" to this recipe for nutrition, texture and color. Any thoughts on making the adjustment? Asparagus…broccoli??
DO IT?
This dish is wonderful, we make it at least once a week in our house! I like to add cut up grape tomatoes at the very end.
Thanks so much Gina!!
I've become obsessed with your blog. I've made about five recipes so far (Buffalo Chicken Dip, Coconut Chicken, Baked Fries -regular and sweet potato-, and the Orecchiette with Chicken Sausage) and now this one!!! I love them all! As a culinary arts high school teacher I've gotten fat from all the food. This site is an inspiration that healthy food can taste good! Thank you.
BTW I worked this out to be 8 pp!
gina any idea how many points plus this is? would love to try this.
