Caramelized Onion, Mushroom & Kalamata Olive Penne


It's back! This is the second year for the Tresomega blogger recipe challenge and I wanted to create a filling yet healthy meal. I think your going to love this recipe because it's easy and delicious. Sometimes the simplest meals are the best ones. Yes, it takes some time to caramelize the onions but it is totally worth it!


If you have tried Gluten Free Pasta before only to find them mushy as I have your going to be thrilled that with Tresomega Quinoa Pasta this is not the case. I promise! I actually liked this Penne better than regular pasta. It cooked up perfectly and no one in my family could tell it apart either.
