RAVIOLI WITH A WILD MUSHROOM CREAMY ALFREDO SAUCE
My daughters and I are total Twilight fanatics. To celebrate the release of the dvd, we all got together for dinner before watching the movie. For the entree, a recipe for some type of Mushroom Ravioli was a natural choice since this is what Bella ordered when Edward took her to dinner. After searching online, I found a casserole type recipe for ravioli that had a mushroom sauce. A salad and Recipe #362337, named after the color of Edward's eyes, completed the meal. We thought the original recipe as written was a little on the bland side. So I went to the Italian forum asking for help with the recipe and Chef Dee514 was kind enough to give me suggestions for the recipe. I have now made the recipe incorporating her ideas and although it wasn't suggested, I did opt to leave in the container of alfredo sauce. Much better than the original recipe I had posted and I hope you'll think so too! Huge thanks and hugs to Dee514 for all her help!! :)

- Note: Although we loved the flavor of the added alfredo sauce, if you would like to omit it, the amount of white wine could be increased to 1/2 cup and the heavy cream to 1 1/2 cup.

CREAMY MUSHROOM ALFREDO SAUCE
This creamy mushroom alfredo sauce recipe is simple and delicious. By using zucchini as the base, you get a mushroom sauce that is full of nutrients and low-fat. You can serve this sauce over any whole grain or noodle, or even a sauteed vegetable, but I have served it over millet. This is a creamy, satisfying dish that doesn't make you feel tired and sluggish.

Steps:
- If making millet, rinse and drain it, and add 2 cups of water for your 1 cup of millet. Sprinkle sea salt in the water, bring it to a boil and simmer on low for 20 minutes, or until dry and fluffy.
- Meanwhile, heat a pan to medium heat. Add the oil and the sliced mushroom tops. Reserve the stems for the sauce. Saute the mushrooms for a few minutes while you start on the sauce.
- Heat a medium sauce pot, add oil, onion and garlic. Stir to coat, and allow to cook for a few minutes until onions are translucent. Stir in the zucchini and mushroom stems and allow to saute for a few minutes until all the vegetables are starting to soften.
- The next part of this creamy mushroom sauce recipe is to go back to the mushrooms, sprinkle salt on them, and let cook a few more minutes.
- Add the salt, pepper, basil, nutmeg and optional nutritional yeast, and stir to coat the vegetables. Cook until the zucchini is fully softened.
- Go back to the mushrooms and when they are fully cooked pour the wine, water and optional lime juice in the pan to deglaze. Set aside until the sauce is finished.
- Once it is very soft, add the water, coconut milk and lime juice and let simmer for a couple of minutes. Lime juice makes this sauce very light and playful, so if you are looking for a heavier-tasting creamy sauce leave this out and use more coconut milk.
- Blend the vegetables in a blender or food processor until smooth. Stir in the sauteed mushrooms and serve over the fully cooked millet or other grain, garnished with your choice of fresh green herb.
