Vegan Alfredo Sauce
Report
This vegan alfredo sauce is made from cashews. And it's so rich and creamy, you'll never believe it's 100% dairy-free. All that - and you can make it in just five minutes!
Share:
Ingredients
- ⅔ cup raw cashews unsalted
- 1 ¾ cups water
- 3 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 2 tsp Dijon mustard
- 2 cloves garlic
- salt and pepper to taste
Supplies You'll Need:
- blender
- Large frying pan
Instructions
- Add the cashews, nutritional yeast, water, mustard, and garlic to the blender.
- Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- For serving: Heat the vegan alfredo sauce in a large frying pan, over medium heat until warmed through. Toss with your favorite pasta, and enjoy!
Notes
- Don't be scared of the nutritional yeast - it adds a wonderful cheesy flavor to the pasta.
- Variations - To make a vegan mushroom alfredo sauce (as pictured), simply saute some fresh mushrooms in the frying pan before adding the blended sauce. Mix it all together to heat through and serve. Yum!
