Creamy Mushroom Sauce

These pictures are really proof of how long it's been since I had updated things on here..Back at the beginning of February I did a competition in Philadelphia, called the Philadelphia Winter Warmer, which I had done last year as well.  Although I did not do quite as well as I would have liked, it at least let me know where my weaknesses still are.  And competing is always fun!

And now on to a recipe!Want to add some variety to your dinner?  Adding a sauce to some plain meat can really spice things up and add some great flavor.  I love when these sauces are quick and easy to make, but still very flavorful.  The sauce I am sharing with you today is a perfect example of such an easy and flavorful addition.

This sauce goes great as a topping on steak, but could also be used as a marsala sauce substitute for pasta or other meats as well.
