This sauce is crazy easy to make and sooo creamy thanks to the soaked cashews. Yum!
Fyi, the boys ate this up while humming. I broke the pasta a bunch so it could be shorter, but it was still difficult for them so next time I’ll likely use a bow tie. Also, would have added peas if I had any.
1 1/4 cup raw cashews (soaked 3-4 hours)
1 cup full fat coconut milk
1/3 cup nutritional yeast
4 cloves garlic
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
10 oz pasta of your choice
Add soaked cashews, coconut milk, nutritional yeast, garlic cloves, lemon juice, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to a blender. Blend on high until smooth and creamy.
Cook pasta according to the package. After, drain the water and transfer pasta back into the pot.
Pour alfredo sauce over the pasta and gently toss to combine.

My daughter is allergic to tree nuts. What would be an alternative to the cashews?
