INGREDIENTS
20g Raw Cashews
1/2 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
3 oz Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup Broccoli
100g Extra Firm Tofu
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Lemon Juice
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and lay them out on a baking sheet.
Roast the broccoli in the oven for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Meanwhile, cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut into cubes. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
In a high-speed blender, combine raw cashews, unsweetened almond milk, nutritional yeast, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat and lightly sauté tofu cubes until golden on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
Mix the cooked pasta with the cashew Alfredo sauce, ensuring it is well coated.
Gently fold in the roasted broccoli and sautéed tofu cubes. Adjust seasoning if necessary and serve warm.
