ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 300 g brown button mushrooms, cleaned and sliced (or mixed mushrooms)

- 1⁄4 teaspoon dried rubbed sage
- 1⁄2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1⁄4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 1⁄8 teaspoon chili powder
- 250 g penne pasta, cooked according to package directions (whole wheat is fine)
- 1 mozzarella cheese, ball cubed (low-fat works fine)
- 3 tablespoons camembert cheese, cubed (low-fat works fine)
- 500 ml bechamel sauce (recommended Basic Béchamel Sauce With Lots of Flavour)

directions
- In a frying pan heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms, onion and garlic. Fry until slightly browned. Add sage, rosemary, black pepper and chilli powder. Set aside.
- In your baking dish (it should hold about 1.5 l/6 cups) combine mushroom mixture, pasta, mozzarella and camembert.
- Pour the béchamel sauce over it and sprinkle with the shredded cheese.
- Bake in the pre-heated oven at 180°C/350°F for about 30 minutes or until nicely browned on top and sauce is bubbling.
- Allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
