So quick and easy to make and really delicious, so a great midweek meal. I used mushroom tortellini and I doubled the mushrooms and the garlic (both favourite ingredients!) and added a tablespoon of Greek yoghurt to the Alfredo Sauce and also some thyme (for me, a natural partner to garlic and mushrooms). Wonderfully creamy yet not too high in fat for how it tasted. Always a major plus. Loved the wine in this too! Thanks for sharing this yummy recipe. Made for 1-2-3 Hit Wonders.

This is excellent and a great meal to put together in a hurry on a weeknight. I sauteed the mushrooms and garlic in a little olive oil before adding the wine and used an entire 16 oz. jar of Alfredo sauce, since I like to mix the sauce with the cooked pasta before serving. I have enough left over for another dinner later this week and maybe a lunch for me, too!

DH and I enjoyed this for dinner tonight. I really didn't taste the wine, but thought the garlic was a delicious addition. The portabellas added a nice meaty texture to the dish. I will make this quick weeknight meal again :) Nick's Mom

wonderful way to lift up alfredo sauce into something special. I used "fresh" storebought alfredo, and meat tortellini because i find it fits the cheesiness of the sauce well. I now need a treadmill :)
