Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, about 11 minutes. Drain the pasta.
In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Sauté the onions until softened, about 2 to 3 minutes. Then, stir in the flour and garlic powder with the onions.

Slowly pour in the milk, stirring continuously. Heat the mixture to just below boiling, then gradually add in the cheese, stirring until the sauce is creamy and smooth. Mix in the peas and mushrooms and cook on low for about 4 minutes, until everything is heated through.
