Ingredients

  • 1 (8 ounce) package fresh fettuccine
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 1 (8 ounce) package sliced mushrooms
  • ½ medium onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 10 ounces marinated artichoke hearts

  • 1 (2 ounce) can sliced black olives, drained
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese
  • 1 medium ripe tomato, chopped

Directions

  1. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring it to a rolling boil. Keep at a boil until needed.
