Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup raw cashews*
1/2-3/4 cup water
1 medium clove garlic (peeled**)
2 teaspoons nutritional yeast
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt + more to taste
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper + more to taste
14.5-ounce package gnocchi or 8 ounces cooked pasta
Fresh minced parsley or chiffonaded basil

Steps:

  • Place cashews, 1/2 cup water, garlic, nutritional yeast, onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper into the pitcher of a high-speed blender. Puree until completely blended, 1-2 minutes. The sauce should be the consistency of eggnog, buttermilk, or a thick heavy whipping cream. If it's thicker than that, add 2 tablespoons of water at a time until you get it there. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired.
  • Cook and drain pasta or gnocchi and add back to the pot. Pour sauce over the top and toss until gnocchi or pasta is coated. Add herbs if you like and serve!

I was skeptical about this recipe at first, but I'm so glad I tried it! The sauce is delicious and it really does come together in just 5 minutes. I used it to make a vegan lasagna, and it was a huge success.
