INGREDIENTS
2 oz Chickpea Pasta
1/8 cup Raw Cashews
4 oz Firm Tofu
1 cup Fresh Spinach
2 Tbsp Nutritional Yeast
1 clove Garlic
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cook the chickpea pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, soak the raw cashews in warm water for about 10 minutes to soften.
Drain the cashews and add them to a blender along with the firm tofu, nutritional yeast, garlic, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth, adding a few tablespoons of water if needed to reach a creamy, pourable consistency.
Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm pasta with the fresh spinach. Pour the creamy cashew-tofu sauce over the pasta and spinach, stirring well to evenly coat all ingredients.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy, protein-packed meal.
