Notes: I used whole wheat pasta shells we had on hand. Served it with steamed broccoli and a toasted whole wheat “skinny” bun. Nova didn’t care for this. I thought it was ok.
Edit: We both like this alfredo sauce better.
Ingredients:
12 ounces silken tofu
1 cup plant-based milk
¼ tsp nutmeg
⅛ tsp garlic powder
⅛ tsp onion powder
½ cup nutritional yeast
2 tbsp whole wheat pastry flour
2 cups whole wheat pasta, cooked
Instructions:
Blend tofu with non-dairy milk, nutmeg, garlic, onion and a light dash of cayenne pepper (optional, or alternatively, add a drop or two of hot sauce) until smooth and creamy. Transfer mixture to a saucepan and whisk in nutritional yeast, flour and 1 tbsp vegan Parmesan. Cook over medium heat and allow to thicken. Taste, adding salt and black pepper to taste and adjusting other seasonings (more Parmesan, more garlic, etc) as desired. Toss with 2-3 cups of cooked whole wheat or brown rice pasta and vegetables if using. Serve immediately.
