VEGAN SWEET POTATO CREAM PASTA
Comfort, ease, and nourishing goodness all wrapped up in one creamy, luxurious,
7-ingredient pasta. Sweet potatoes are boiled until fork tender and then blended
until smooth with almond milk, garlic, nutritional yeast, olive oil, lemon
juice, salt, and pepper. The sauce is simmered for just 3 minutes, or until hot
and bubbly. Then, it's tossed with heaps of warm pasta (gluten-free, if you
please), yielding a dish that's just as satisfying as it is nourishing. The
flavor of the sauce is intended to be soft and delicate (think vegan
bechamel—aka "basic cream sauce"—with a subtle hint of sweet potato). I love it
as is with a sprinkle of vegan parmesan, but perhaps you'll prefer a more
amped-up flavor. In that case, feel free to add fresh or dried herbs or up the
seasoning.
