Ingredients
 ½ lb your favorite pasta, pappardelle is a good choice
 1 tbsp butter
 2 tbsp olive oil
 1 lb mixed mushrooms (like oyster, button, and porcini)
 1 leek, washed and sliced
 2 shallots, chopped
 2 cloves garlic, minced
 2 sprigs thyme, chopped
 4 tbsp tarragon, chopped
 2 tbsp flour
 1 cup chicken stock (or veggie stock)
 4 oz Fontina cheese
 4 oz Parmesan cheese
Directions
1

In a large sauté pan, melt the butter and 1 tbsp olive oil. Add the mushrooms and sauté over medium-high heat until browned. Move mushrooms to a bowl.

In the same pan, heat an additional 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat, then add leeks, shallots, and garlic. Season with salt and pepper, and sauté until mixture has softened, about 4 minutes.

3

Still over medium heat, add mushrooms to leek mixture, then mix in thyme and tarragon. Sprinkle the entire mixture with flour, and stir to combine, coating all ingredients. Let cook for 1 minute.

Add chicken stock, stir to combine, and cook over medium heat until the sauce has thickened.
