Vegan Alfredo With Veggies Recipes

Steps:

• Put cashews in a small bowl; add enough boiling water to cover. Let stand, covered, for 20 minutes. Drain, rinse, and drain again.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes, adding peas and carrots in the last minute of cooking. Drain. Return pasta mixture to the pot. Add mushrooms and spinach; cook over low heat, stirring frequently, until spinach is wilted.
• Whisk 1 1/4 cups water and flour together in a small saucepan until smooth. Simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently, until golden and pourable, about 3 minutes.
• Transfer flour mixture to a blender; add soaked cashews, lemon juice, garlic, salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Blend until smooth.
• Serve sauce over pasta mixture, sprinkled with additional pepper and lemon zest.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to the package directions. Drain the pasta, reserving 1/3 cup of the cooking water.
• While the pasta cooks, heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the oil and onions and cook, stirring, until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the cashews and garlic and cook, stirring, until they're just starting to color, about 4 minutes. Add the vegetable broth and bring just to a boil.
• Transfer the mixture to a blender and add the nutritional yeast, miso and 1 teaspoon salt. Alternatively, keep the mixture in the saute pan; add the nutritional yeast, miso and 1 teaspoon salt and use an immersion blender. Blend until the sauce is thick, creamy and smooth.
• Return the drained pasta to the pot and toss with the sauce. If the sauce is too thick, toss with the reserved cooking water to thin the sauce.
• Sprinkle with chopped parsley, if desired.

Steps:

• Add the cashews to a medium bowl and cover with water. Cover with plastic wrap and let soak, refrigerated, overnight.
• Drain the cashews and set aside.
• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until light golden, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Transfer the mixture to a high-powered blender. Add the cashews, vegetable broth, almond milk, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, nutmeg, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Blend until smooth and combined.
• To serve, heat the Alfredo sauce in a large skillet and toss with your favorite pasta and a splash of pasta water.

Steps:

• Boil 4 cups (945 ml) of water in a small pot.
• Cut a quarter of an onion into cubes. Peel and chop the potatoes into ½ inch (1 cm) cubes.
• Add onion and potatoes to pot and boil for 10 minutes, or until soft.
• Remove potatoes and onion from the pot. Make sure to save the water.
• Begin cooking fettuccine pasta in a separate pot.
• In a blender, combine 1 cup (235ml) of the water used to boil the veggies, raw cashews, veggies, lemon juice, and seasonings. Blend until creamy. Add more of the boiling water if the mixture is too thick.
• Add salt to taste and garlic.
• NOTE: Adding 1 tsp of nutritional yeast, and ¼ tsp truffle oil will really make this dish pop with cheesy flavor!
• Pour the sauce over the cooked pasta and serve.
• Enjoy!
