Creamy Cashew Alfredo Pasta with Fresh Spinach
Savor a luscious plate of creamy cashew alfredo pasta, where tender whole wheat pasta meets a velvety cashew-tofu sauce infused with zesty lemon and garlic. Fresh spinach adds a burst of vibrant color and a nutritious crunch, making this dish a balanced and satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz dry Whole Wheat Pasta
1 oz Raw Cashews
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/4 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
1 Tbsp Nutritional Yeast
200g Firm Tofu
1 clove Garlic
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Meanwhile, in a high-speed blender, combine the raw cashews, unsweetened almond milk, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, and garlic. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Crumble the firm tofu and add it to the blender. Blend again until the sauce is velvety and well combined. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the tofu-cashew alfredo sauce gently. Add the fresh spinach and stir until the spinach has wilted slightly.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat evenly with the sauce.
Serve immediately, garnished with a sprinkle of extra nutritional yeast or freshly ground black pepper if desired.
