"Posted for You Want What!? A Recipe Posting Game 2014/2015. Original recipe from Adrian Richardson of Good Chef Bad Chef. Good Chef Zowie says 6 serves with a salad and Bad Chef Adrian says no 3 serves no salad. Have since made this and used a half recipe for 2 of us and I had 1 1/4 mushroom and the DS had 1 3/4 just felt I needed more than one with the salad but not a half, worked well and was delicious. Though the only small pasta I had on hand which was cooked was small ears so used that."
