INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz whole wheat pasta (42g)
3 tbsp raw cashews (26g)
1/2 cup cauliflower florets (50g)
1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (60 ml)
2 tbsp nutritional yeast (10g)
1 tsp olive oil (5g)
1/2 cup silken tofu (124g)
1/2 cup shelled edamame (75g)
1 garlic clove
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, steam the cauliflower florets until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
In a high-speed blender, combine the soaked cashews, steamed cauliflower, silken tofu, unsweetened almond milk, nutritional yeast, garlic, and olive oil. Blend until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of water or extra almond milk to reach your desired consistency.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta with the creamy cashew sauce. Gently fold in the shelled edamame for an added protein punch.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve warm and enjoy your nutritious, protein-rich creamy cashew alfredo pasta.
