Please could I have people's recipes for creamy mushroom pasta? Sounds delicious.

When I worked in north London there was an amazing Deli in St Johns Wood that did the most incredible creamy mushroom pasta and I'd forgotten about it until now!

It's getting hard to juggle between yummy foods now and not impinging on the Christmas menu!

Monday: Chicken Casserole with Potato and Sweet Potato mash, with brussel sprouts, broccoli, beans, leek, asparagus and carrots.
Tuesday: It's my birthday so as is traditional, Chicken in a creamy onion sauce on a bed of fettucine, and whatever dessert I feel like making - at this point I'm tossing up between creme brulee or apple pie.
Wednesday: Shepherds Pie with the above copious amount of veges.
Thursday: Time to celebrate the end of PPE's for the eldest, so she had her pick - she of the champagne tastes (can't think where she gets that from) has asked for Beef Eye Fillet with a Red wine jus, creamy garlic mash, brussies again, broccoli and baby carrots.

We are trialling this plant based diet, for health, at DH's request.

I've just sat and tried to make a plan for the week. I need to tweak what order to make them in so duplicate ingredients are used up.

So far, I've got

Chickpea & spinach curry with cauli-rice.
Courgetti stir-fry.
Courgetti guacamole.
Vegetable lasagna.
Kidney bean & chickpea fajitas.
Wrap pizzas and salad.
Bean stew.
Filo tart & salad.
