I guess you are looking for a recipe that will be vegetarian, as well as keeping your meatloving self happy, right? Cooking two versions is just a nuisance. This one is really tasty, and not lacking anything tastewise. Chop some onions, red ones are best in this, heat a pat of butter in a skillet and put the onions in. While the onions are sauteeing, chop some garlic and a bunch of mushrooms. Portobellos work nicely. When the onions are just starting to brown, throw the garlic and the mushrooms into the pan. Sautee until all the fluid from the mushrooms has evaporated. Deglaze with a glass (or two or three) of whitewine and throw in some peas. Fresh or frozen,not canned. Let simmer till reduced by aproximately half. Fill up to the desired amount of sauce with heavy cream. (Yes, a lot of calories, but it is a special occassion, right?) Now, at this point you can put in a bunch of shredded parmesan or romano,or you can leave the cheese out. Both versions are very tasty. Season to taste with salt, pepperand muscat. Serve over tagiatelle. There are no measurements, as I always cook without measuring. However, this sauce has turned out deliciously every time. Just adjust the amounts to your taste.
