Sun-dried Tomato and Mushroom Pasta in a Garlic and Basil Cream Sauce

Sharing is caring!

Thanks — I’m excited to write this article for you. I noticed the recipe name is provided ("Sun-dried Tomato and Mushroom Pasta in a Garlic and Basil Cream Sauce") but the ingredient list and step-by-step directions (and the explicit primary/secondary keywords) are missing from your inputs.

I can proceed two ways — pick the option you prefer:

1. I invent a full, realistic recipe (ingredients + directions) based on the recipe name and then generate the full 1,400–2,000 word article with the required internal/external links, meta description, FAQs, tips, personal anecdote, and Chef Anna’s voice. I’ll also choose appropriate primary and secondary keywords (and place them where required). If you choose this, I’ll use the recipe title as the primary keyword and sensible secondary keywords like: sun-dried tomatoes, mushroom pasta, garlic basil cream sauce, quick pasta recipe.

2. You provide the exact ingredients, directions, and the primary + secondary keywords you want me to use, and I’ll craft the article precisely from your inputs.

Which would you like? If you want option 1, I’ll start drafting right away. If option 2, please paste the ingredients, directions, and the keywords.
