INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare the tomato sauce first. While it simmers, make the mushroom sauce.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium
heat. Add garlic; saute 30 seconds. Add basil, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, 1/4
teaspoon salt, and tomato;. cook over low heat 20 minutes, stirring
occasionally. Set aside. Place a large saucepan coated with cooking spray
over medium-high heat until hot. Add mushrooms, and cook 5 minutes. Remove
from saucepan, and set aside. Add flour to saucepan. Gradually add milk,
stirring with a whisk until blended. Place flour mixture over medium heat,
and cook until thick (about 3 minutes), stirring constantly. Stir in Swiss
cheese, wine, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook until cheese
melts (about 1 minute), stirring constantly. Remove from heat, and stir in
mushrooms. Combine linguine and mushroom sauce in a large bowl. Spoon
linguine mixture into a 13 x 9 inch baking dish coated with cooking spray.
Spread tomato sauce evenly over the linguine mixture, and sprinkle with
Parmesan cheese. Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Uncover and
bake an additional 5 minutes. Garnish with oregano springs, if desired.
