Ingredients

1

360g package fresh lasagne pasta sheets

1

1 tbsp

vegetable oil   

15 mL

1 ½ lb

fresh mushrooms, sliced

750 g

1

red onion, diced

1

4

garlic cloves, finely chopped

4

1/4 cup

tarragon, finely chopped

50 mL

1/2 cup

red wine

125 mL

1/2 cup walnuts, chopped and toasted 125 mL
1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, diced 50 mL
1 tbsp salt 15 mL
1 tsp pepper 5 mL
2 cups 35 % cream 500 mL
1/2 cup goat cheese 125 mL
1 cup Mozzarella cheese, grated 250 mL

Method

Prepare pasta sheets according to package directions to make Cannelloni.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add mushrooms, onion, garlic and 2 tbsp of tarragon; cook and stir for 4-5 minutes or until mushroom liquid has evaporated.  Add the red wine, ½ tsp salt and ½ tsp pepper; cook and stir the mixture until the wine is reduced and most of the liquid has evaporated. Remove from heat and add walnuts and sun-dried tomatoes. Set mixture aside.

In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, bring cream to a boil.  Add the goat cheese and stir until all the cheese is melted. Remove from heat and stir in the remaining 2 tbsp of tarragon, and remaining salt and pepper.

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Cut each pasta sheet in half vertically; place approximately ½ cup of mushroom mixture across each sheet; roll each sheet into cylinder shaped tubes.  Place tubes in a lightly greased 13 X 9” (33 X 23 cm) pan; pour goat cheese tarragon cream sauce over the cannelloni. Top with mozzarella cheese. Bake for 15 – 20 minutes or until cheese is golden brown

Place 2 Fresh Mushroom Cannelloni tubes on a plate and serve with the Goat Cheese Tarragon Cream Sauce poured over top and on the side.

Makes 6 servings
