Servings: 2 people
Ingredients
- 200 gr tagliatelle
- 50 gr pancetta (or bacon)
- 100 gr white mushrooms sliced
- 150 gr fresh spinach

- ⅓ cup parmesan cheese
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cook the tagliatelle according to their package instructions.

- Pour the heavy cream and season with salt and pepper and reduce the sauce for 5 more minutes.
