Equipment

  • Blender

Ingredients

  • 4 ounces fettuccine or another (gluten-free) pasta of choice
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 5 ounces mushrooms sliced
  • ½ cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 cup vegan cashew Alfredo sauce
  • 1 handful baby spinach

Instructions

  • Prepare the vegan Alfredo sauce according to the recipe instructions.
  • Cook the pasta according to the package instructions and reserve some of the pasta water before draining.
  • Preheat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. First, sauté the mushrooms. Then, add the cherry tomatoes and sauté shortly until they start to soften.
  • Pour the vegan Alfredo sauce into the pan. Add pasta water and/or vegan milk as needed.
  • Stir in the baby spinach and the cooked fettuccine. Season with more salt and pepper if needed. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Gluten-free: Use any type of gluten-free pasta or zucchini noodles to make this dish gluten-free.
  • Add pasta water to the sauce: I recommend adding some starchy pasta water to the sauce as it helps to make the sauce cling to the pasta and adds flavor.
