Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz. Elbow Macaroni
  • 1 cup raw cashews
  • 2 cups unsweetened plant-milk
  • 2 Tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1 Tbsp Mushroom Seasoning (I used Imperial Taste Brand) or white miso paste
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp Lactic Acid or lemon juice to taste
  • Lots of black pepper
  • Vegan parmesan for topping optional

Instructions
 

  • Cover the cashews in boiling water for 10 minutes.
  • Drain cashews and add them to a high speed blender with the plant milk and blend until smooth.
  • Add dried pasta to a saucepan. Next cover the pasta in about 2 cups of water (use more or less as needed). Throw in a good pinch of salt and then bring the water to a boil. Stir occasionally to keep the pasta from sticking.
  • Once the water is boiling, lower the heat and cook until al dente and most of the water has evaporated.
  • Add the cashew cream and all the other ingredients to the pasta and stir until combined.
  • Season to taste, top with more black pepper and vegan parmesan if desired and serve immediately!

Notes

If you want this to go faster, bring the pasta to a boil while the cashews soak in the hot water.
