This is a pasta with great flavor! Gorgonzola cheese isn’t a cheese that you typically see in a pasta recipe, but it adds so much. If you are a lover of blue cheese and gorgonzola, you will love it! You can also sub feta cheese, if you’d like. It’s not a super rich pasta recipe because there is no cream sauce. The pasta is tossed in a broth-based mixture of mushroom, tomato and spices with the addition of the cheese too.
Ingredients needed:
olive oil mushrooms dried basil, thyme and oregano crushed red pepper tomatoes chicken broth garlic fresh parsley salt and pepper penne pasta crumbled gorgonzola cheese

Spoon onto a serving platter and sprinkle with Gorgonzola cheese. Season with salt and pepper, as needed. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
Change it up!
If you would prefer to make this a cream sauce pasta recipe, substitute heavy whipping cream for the broth. I’d probably add more cream than broth, as needed. The addition of a splash of white wine would be great too. If you don’t care for mushrooms, try using zucchini instead.
