Mushroom Swiss Cheeseburger Pasta (Low Carb)
This Mushroom Swiss Cheeseburger Pasta is a delicious low carb pasta dish made with ground beef, sauteed mushrooms, and a homemade Swiss cheese sauce.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 medium onion thinly sliced
- 8 ounces cremini mushrooms stemmed and sliced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 pound ground beef
- 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- pink salt
- cracked black pepper
- 8 ounces low carb pasta
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 ounces cream cheese cubed, and at room temperature
- 8 ounces Swiss cheese shredded
- fresh flat-leaf parsley chopped for garnish
Instructions
- Fill a large pot with salted water and bring it to a boil. Add the pasta and cook for 5 to 10 minutes (or until desired tenderness).
- Drain the pasta and set aside.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and saute, stirring occasionally, until they begin to turn golden brown. About 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms to the skillet and continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes, then add the garlic and cook and another minute.
- Increase the heat to medium-high and push the veggies to the sides of the pan. Add ground beef, breaking it up with a meat chopper and stirring it into the sauteed veggies. Cook until there is no longer any pink, about 7 to 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a medium pot, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the heavy cream, cream cheese, salt, and pepper. Whisk until the cream cheese has melted.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes.
- Whisk in the Swiss cheese until it is completely incorporated. Remove from the heat.
- Into the ground beef mixture, stir the Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper, cooked pasta, and Swiss cheese mixture.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
- Garnish with chopped parsley.
