vegan alfredo sauce
Another quick post before I go out for my long run. Bored by the usual tomato-based sauce recipes? This is a excellent cheese sauce for pasta. I used PPK's vegan alfreda sauce (YUM!) recipe as a starter -- and kicked it up a notch.
We can't get enough spice.
Anyway, just cook your favorite pasta, make this sauce, add some veggies, and you've got yourself a dinner.
VEGAN ALFREDO SAUCE
(for those who like it hot, hot, hot)
What you'll need . . .
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 1 medium onion chopped in big chunks
- 4 cloves garlic chopped
- 1/2 cup water
- 2`teaspoons spicy brown mustard
- 1/2 cup walnuts (raw)
- 2 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 cup nutritional yeast
- salt (to taste)
- fresh black pepper (to taste)
Method . . .
- Heat the olive oil in the skillet, add onions and saute 5 minutes until slightly softened.
- Add garlic, saute 2 more minutes.
- Transfer to the blender, add all the other ingredients and blend.
- It turns out smooth -- and I'd suggest adding a bit more soy milk to make it thinner. Ours turned out really thick . . . and, well, extremely filling! Almost too much so . . .
*This amount should be enough for 4 servings of pasta.
