Creamy Garlic Mushrooms Are Delicious!

These creamy garlic mushrooms taste restaurant quality but are made at home.

This delicious side dish was inspired one of my favorite dinners: Creamy Mushroom Pasta.

Juicy whole baby bella mushrooms are cooked with fresh minced garlic and coated in a homemade thick parmesan cream sauce. The sauce is so flavorful that we scraped up every last bit off of the pan!

You can make this a meal by adding a protein and pasta, or serve it as a side dish that pairs well with any savory meal.

How To Store

Leftovers (if there are any!) can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.

Reheat leftovers in the microwave or in a skillet until heated through.
