Ingredients

• 12 ounces Pasta of choice (e.g., fettuccine or linguine)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 4 units Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 cups Unsweetened almond milk
• 1 cup Nutritional yeast
• 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Vegan butter
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the olive oil and minced garlic. Sauté the garlic for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.

Step 3

In a bowl, whisk together the almond milk, nutritional yeast, and cornstarch until smooth and no lumps remain.

Step 4

Add the almond milk mixture to the saucepan with the garlic. Stir continuously until the sauce starts to thicken, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the vegan butter until melted and incorporated into the sauce. Season with salt and black pepper.

Step 6

Add the cooked pasta to the saucepan and toss to coat the pasta evenly with the sauce.

Step 7

Stir in the lemon juice, chopped parsley, and half of the vegan parmesan cheese.

Step 8

Serve the pasta in bowls, garnished with the remaining vegan parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
