BEEF AND MUSHROOM PASTA SAUCE
This is an easy to prepare mushroom pasta sauce. I usually serve this over spaghetti, but it's just as good over any pasta and equally delicious served over cheese ravioli or rice! This also freezes well.

BRAISED BEEF AND PASTA WITH ITALIAN MUSHROOM SAUCE
I found this recipe on my butcher's website and decided to give it a try. I used shoulder steaks and let me tell you, it was fabulous! The steak is so tender, and the sauce (or gravy as it's called in South Philly) is delicious.
