INGREDIENTS
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta
1/4 cup Raw Cashews
150g Extra-Firm Tofu
1 cup Spinach
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta in boiling water according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
In a high-speed blender, combine the raw cashews, a small splash of water, and a pinch of salt. Blend until a smooth, creamy sauce forms. Adjust consistency with extra water if needed.
Pat the tofu dry and cut into small cubes.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and lightly sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the tofu cubes to the skillet and sauté for 4-5 minutes, turning occasionally until all sides are lightly golden.
Introduce the spinach to the pan and cook until just wilted, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Combine the pasta with the sautéed tofu and spinach. Pour the cashew cream over the pasta, stirring to evenly coat.
Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed, then serve warm.
