Heat 2 T. olive oil in a large skillet, add mushrooms and bell pepper; season with a pinch of salt. Cook on High heat for about 5 minutes, stirring often; reduce heat to medium-low; cook, covered for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Cook pasta in well salted boiling water according to package instructions, about 9-12 minutes; drain.

Add heavy cream, milk, Parmesan cheese and 1/4 t. salt to the mushroom and bell pepper mixture; heat on medium-low heat; stir.

Add pasta to the creamy sauce, stirring to coat over low heat for about 5-10 minutes until cheese melts and starts to coat pasta. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
