INGREDIENTS
50g Chickpea Pasta
15g Unsalted Cashews
100g Firm Tofu
1/4 cup Chickpeas (cooked)
1 cup Chopped Broccoli
2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
2 cloves Garlic
50 ml Water
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss the chopped broccoli (and chickpeas if desired) with a light drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper, then spread on a baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
While the broccoli roasts, cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a high-speed blender, combine cashews, firm tofu, nutritional yeast, garlic, and water. Blend until smooth and creamy, adjusting water as needed to reach desired sauce consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
In a large bowl, toss the cooked pasta with the creamy cashew sauce ensuring it is evenly coated.
Gently fold in the roasted broccoli (and chickpeas) into the saucy pasta.
Serve immediately while warm, enjoying the interplay of creaminess and roasted veggie texture.
