Notes

For variation, experiment with a mix of mushrooms such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms for added flavor and texture. This dish can be prepared ahead of time and reheated gently. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months. For a lighter dish, substitute the heavy cream with half-and-half or Greek yogurt, and feel free to adjust the mustard to taste.
