Vegan Mushroom Tomato Pasta Variations
The beauty of making a meal with pasta is that you can customize it to suit your preferences.
The recipe calls for wholewheat fusilli, but you can use any pasta you like or have. I love fusilli a lot more than other types of pasta, but I have made this recipe before with long pasta noodles and it worked just fine.
