Creamy Orecchiette with Brussels Sprouts, Pancetta, and Wild Mushrooms

Creamy Orecchiette with Brussels Sprouts, Pancetta, and Wild Mushrooms

Orecchiette (meaning “little ears” in Italian) is one of our favorite pasta shapes because of its ability to hold in delicious sauces. In this dish, pancetta, wild mushrooms, and shredded Brussels sprouts are tossed into a light, creamy sauce flavored with parmesan, garlic, and woodsy thyme.
