TOFU ' CREAMY' PASTA SAUCE
This works well as a creamy sauce for pasta. Especially useful for those unable to have dairy or tomato sauces. This is a beginning point, and maybe quite useful for Elimination Diets. For those with less restrictions, I'd suggest adding herbs and onions to taste. (I plan on developing such a recipe once I'm allowed onions again.) I've been eating this with rice & millet pasta twists.

Steps:
- Blend the tofu, garlic, parsley, herbs, paprika, and salt. (Add any herbs you want).
- Then thin with soy milk to achieve consistency. I like mine rather thick so it coats the pasta.
- When mixed, heat thoroughly in a pan before putting on pasta. (It tends too cool too quick if just poured over pasta and quickly heated.) DON'T LET IT BOIL THOUGH! It will separate and turn pasty if you do, which just isn't pleasant.
Tips:
- Use a large skillet to make the sauce to prevent splattering.
- Do not rinse the pasta after cooking, as this will remove the starch that helps the sauce adhere to the pasta.
- Add the pasta to the sauce while it is still hot to help the sauce coat the pasta evenly.
- If the sauce is too thick, add a little bit of pasta water to thin it out.
- Season the sauce to taste with salt, pepper, and additional herbs or spices.
