Creamy Vegan Garlic Pasta

Thick, creamy vegan garlic pasta sauce, ready in under 5 minutes!
Total Time5 minutes
Course: Main Course
Cuisine: Italian
Keyword: alfredo, cashews, garlic, pasta
Servings: 1 cup

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup raw cashews or macadamias
  • 1/2 cup milk of choice
  • 1 1/2 tbsp minced garlic
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 2 tsp oil or butter spread, optional
  • pasta, rice, or veggies of choice

Instructions

  • Simply combine all sauce ingredients in a high speed blender until completely smooth. (I like to add the optional oil for richness and to help sauce adhere better to pasta.) Add more seasonings if you wish – I add a little more garlic and 1/4 tsp more salt. Sometimes I’ll also add a tbsp of nutritional yeast or some lemon juice to change up the flavor. Heat to desired serving temperature on the stovetop or in the microwave, then pour over pasta or veggies.
