Fettucine Alfredo with Peas, Mushrooms, & Onions

This was a new meal and recipe for us and it turned out well. I took an alfredo recipe that a friend sent me (thanks Jenni!) and then just mixed it with a box of cooked fettuccine noodles. While the noodles were cooking I sautéed some 6oz of mushrooms and an onion in some olive oil. Once they were almost done I added half a bag of frozen peas to it. Then drained that and mixed it in as well. I am pretty sure that I added more garlic powder and salt that recommended here but I didn't measure so I am not sure, but I still thought it could use a little more so I added some to the sauteeing vegetables as well.

So, here is the alfredo recipe that I used:
