3 cloves garlic, minced
2 Cups Chopped Fresh Mushrooms
4 Fresh tomatoes, skin removed and chopped
2 cups fresh peas
1 large ball of fresh mozzarella, diced
Salt and pepper to taste
Chopped fresh basil
1/2 Lb large tubular noodles

Cook the noodles in a large pot of salted water. Drain and reserve. Heat the oil in a sauce pan over medium-high heat and add garlic.  Sautee for about 30 seconds until you can smell the garlic.  Add the onion and sautee until translucent, about five minutes.  Add the mushrooms, reduce heat and cook until mushrooms begin to release their juices.  Add tomatoes and stir until tomatoes begin to break down, about 7 minutes. Add peas and cook until hot, about 4 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.  Turn off heat and add noodles, basil, and mozzarella.

Recipe note: Try different combinations of mushrooms. They add different flavors and depth to the sauce
