Get all the cozy vibes this Sunday with a big bowl of this one-pot Mushroom and White Bean Pasta. Made with leftover broken lasagna noodles, tender mushrooms, white beans, and mixed in a creamy dairy-free sauce. Whip this easy one-pot meal up in 30 minutes or less.
TIPS WHEN MAKING THIS PASTA
- This recipe does not take long to make. So I highly recommend that you have all the ingredients prepped and ready. That includes chopping up your onions, garlic, and mushrooms before cooking.
- It is super important to use unsweetened dairy-free milk. Using sweetened milk will make this pasta taste sweet instead of savory.
- As you are cooking your pasta it might seem like you are adding a lot of liquid. However, as you cook the sauce it will thicken very quickly.
- For the pasta I used leftover broken lasagna noodles that I had in my pantry. You can substitute the lasagna noodles for any type of noodles that you already have.
- After you are done cooking this dish immediately take it off the stove. Keeping it on the stove will cause it to burn.
- As the pasta cools it will get very thick. To thin your creamy pasta sauce add additional vegetable broth and stir.

One-Pot Mushroom and White Bean Pasta
Made with leftover broken lasagna noodles, tender mushrooms, white beans, and mixed in a creamy dairy-free sauce. Whip this easy one-pot meal up in 30 minutes or less.
Ingredients
- 3 Tbsp neutral oil, I used olive oil

- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 Tbsp all-purpose flour, substitute with gluten-free flour
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 7 ounces (7-8) lasagna noodles, substitute with gluten-free noodles
- 1 cup cooked white beans, I used canned beans
- 2 cups unsweetened dairy-free milk, I used soy milk
- 1 package of white mushrooms, chopped
- 2 Tbsp nutritional yeast
- 1 ½ Tbsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- ½ tsp garlic powder, optional
Directions
- Heat a large pot on medium heat. Add the oil and onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 2 minutes.
- Add the flour and stir to combine. Pour in the vegetable broth and mix.
- Break the lasagna noodles into bite sized pieces and add it to the pot.
- Pour the milk, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, garlic powder, stirring frequently, and cook until the noodles are completely cooked, 7-8 minutes.
- Add the mushrooms, beans, and nutritional yeast. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until the mushrooms are soft.
- Taste the pasta and add additional seasoning (salt, pepper, or italian seasoning) if needed.
- Take pasta off the heat. Divide into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley or crushed red pepper.
- Leftovers can be kept in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 3 days.
- Substitute Italian seasoning with 2 tsp of each dried thyme, dried oregano, dried rosemary, and dried basil.
- Don’t have lasagna noodles? Use anytype of pasta that you have in your pantry instead.
- Garnishes that I recommend for this pasta include, mozzarella cheese, fresh basil, or nutritional yeast.
I thought it had beans in it? Don’t see them.
Hi Lucy, It has 1 cup of white beans. You can use northern or cannellini beans. I used white beans from the can. Add them when you add the mushrooms 🙂
I’m so excited to try this! Thanks for the recipe. Happy Holidays!
