Ingredients

  • 2 cups gluten-free fusilli pasta of President's Choice brand
  • 1 onion finely diced, medium
  • 1 tbsp grapeseed oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced (or 1/2 tsp garlic powder)
  • 1/2 firm tofu The full block is 454 g, torn up into rough, pieces (kind of like torn chicken, block
  • 1/2 tsp poultry seasoning I used No Name brand
  • 1 cup spinach I used some thawed, chopped spinach, cooked
  • 1/2 cup vegan cream cheese I used Tofutti
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 cup water reserved pasta water
  • 2 tbsp soy milk unsweetened
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 2 tbsp hot sauce I used Frank's Red Hot, your favourite
  • black pepper I used about 1/2 tsp of each, to taste
  • salt I used about 1/2 tsp of each, to taste

Instructions

  1. Start by cooking the President's Choice Gluten-Free Fusilli pasta with lightly salted water. Reserve 1/4 cup pasta water and strain once cooked to taste (when it's cooked all the way it'll still have a nice al dente bite).
  2. Meanwhile, in a skillet cook up onion with grapeseed oil over medium heat until translucent. Add garlic and cook until fragrant.
  3. Add in torn tofu ("torn chicken") and toss to coat in onion and garlic goodness. Sprinkle poultry seasoning on top (and garlic powder if you didn't have fresh garlic on hand). Cook until tofu starts to brown, then add cooked spinach and stir to combine.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together vegan cream cheese, garlic powder, reserved pasta water, soy milk, nutritional yeast, hot sauce, salt and pepper until well combined. You should have a nice, thick but pourable sauce.
  5. Add both cooked pasta and this creamy sauce to the tofu chicken pan and stir to coat. Adjust with a splash of soy milk if you find it still a little thick.
  6. Enjoy immediately!
