INGREDIENTS
3 oz dry Chickpea Pasta

1/2 cup Cannellini Beans
2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 Garlic Clove
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Water (as needed)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cook the chickpea pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a high-speed blender, combine raw cashews, cannellini beans, nutritional yeast, garlic, lemon juice, a pinch of salt and pepper, and about 1/2 cup of water. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy, adding more water as needed to reach your desired consistency.
Pour the cashew Alfredo sauce into a medium saucepan and gently warm over low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Add the cooked pasta to the sauce and toss until evenly coated. Stir in the fresh spinach just until it wilts slightly from the heat.
Season with additional salt and pepper if needed and serve immediately, enjoying the creamy texture and rich flavor of this nourishing dish.
