Mushroom Bolognese

Ingredients:
1 pound mushrooms (or as many 'shrooms as you want)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 tablespoon tomato paste
14-oz can chopped tomatoes
Oregano, fresh or dried (however much you want)
1 pound pasta (I use spaghetti noodles)
Parmesan. Lots of parmesan.

Step 1

Wipe the nasty stuff off of the mushrooms with a wet rag. Cut them into quarters or slice them (if you don't like big chunks of mushrooms).

Step 2

Heat up the oil in a large pan. Add the chopped onion and garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes. At the same time, bring a pot of water to a boil and start the pasta.

Step 3

Add the mushrooms to the pan and cook over high heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring occassionally.

Step 4

Stir in the tomato paste, can of chopped tomatoes, and your desired amount of oregano. Lower the heat, cover, and cook for 5 minutes. Start shredding the parmesan now.

Step 5

Season the sauce with salt, pepper, and whatever else you want in it. Drain the pasta, pour it into the bowl, and add the sauce. Or, if you don't like washing extra dishes, put the pasta in the pan you already have the sauce in. Mix everything up and put some in your bowl when finished mixing. Put some (or a lot, in my case) parmesan on top of your mushroom bolognese and eat.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
