And Italy is plentiful with amazing mushrooms—champignon, porcini, truffle and more. In this sumptuous guide, we’ll explore a curated selection of our best mushroom recipes for dinner this fall!


#1 Champignon Mushroom Pasta

Indulge in Champignon Mushroom Tagliatelle, a culinary jewel inspired by Italian kitchens. Picture it: a symphony of butter melting into golden olive oil, a cascade of fresh parsley, and the star of the dish—the humble yet transformative champignon mushroom. Unlike its elusive cousin, the porcini, this versatile mushroom is an everyday find in U.S. grocery stores, just waiting to be elevated to gourmet status. This dish is more than just a vegetarian offering; it’s an earthy delight that seduces the palate. And for that quintessential Italian flourish? A lavish snowfall of freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano. It’s not just dinner; it’s an experience.
