Healthy Mushroom Fettuccine (Vegan/GF)

How do you improve a bad day? A big bowl of fettuccine pasta never hurts! 

This mushroom pasta is so delish and is actually really healthy! I used organic mung bean edamame fettuccine which has 24 grams of plant protein per serving and 11 grams of fiber. Fiber is key to weight loss and for optimal gut health. Increasing your fiber intake is very important. I am obsessed with healthy pasta alternatives because it gives you the same feeling as regular pasta but in reality, its much healthier and has way more nutritional value. This dish is very simple to make and you really only need a few ingredients.
