Veggie Carbonara is a plant-based twist on the classic Italian pasta dish, offering a creamy, satisfying meal without the use of meat or traditional dairy. Made with al dente pasta, a velvety sauce crafted from ingredients like plant-based milk, nutritional yeast, or cashews, and loaded with sautéed vegetables such as zucchini, mushrooms, peas, or spinach, it’s a wholesome and nutrient-packed option. Smoked paprika or liquid smoke adds a hint of that iconic "bacon" flavor, while garlic and black pepper enhance the dish's richness. High in fiber and vitamins from the vegetables, this version supports digestive health and provides essential nutrients. Unlike its traditional counterpart, this recipe is lower in saturated fats and cholesterol, making it a heart-healthier option. While still indulgently creamy, portion control is key for monitoring calories. Perfect for vegans or anyone seeking a lighter, plant-forward version of the beloved Italian classic!
