Do you ever just crave a gigantic bowl of creamy, cheesy pasta? Yeah, same. Which is where the inspo for this Cheesy Vegan\u00a0Pumpkin<\/span>\u00a0Pasta came from. This pasta gets its creaminess from cashew milk, it\u2019s cheesy, salty, savory flavors from nutritional yeast, and a little extra bite from the addition of white wine. The biggest bonus is that the wine is totally necessary for this recipe, but you only need 1\/3 cup, so cheers to sipping and simmering. You\u2019re welcome.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n\"ingredients\n

Ingredients:<\/em><\/p>\n

1 box of rotini\u00a0 pasta<\/p>\n

2 Tbsp olive oil<\/p>\n

2 tsp crushed garlic (or garlic powder)<\/p>\n

1\/3 cup white wine<\/p>\n

2 Tbsp cornstarch or arrowroot<\/p>\n

1 cup cashew milk (plus more to thin)<\/p>\n

1\/2 cup canned\u00a0pumpkin<\/span><\/p>\n

1\/4 cup nutritional yeast (add up to an additional 1\/2 cup for extra cheesiness)<\/p>\n

Salt and pepper<\/p>\n

To begin, boil water, add a couple teaspoons of salt, and cook that pasta! Fresh is always best, but you can fully use boxed (I did) or even a gluten-free variety. If you\u2019re going for a vegan dish, be sure your pasta doesn\u2019t contain eggs, lots do!<\/p>\n

While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a pan and add your garlic. Let that cook until it just starts to brown before adding your 1\/3 cup of white wine. Sip. While the wine\/garlic mixture is simmering, whisk 2 Tbsp cornstarch or arrowroot with 1 cup of cashew milk. Add your milk mixture to the wine and stir constantly until it\u2019s all nice and thick. Toss in the 1\/2 cup canned\u00a0pumpkin<\/span>, then add your 1\/4 cup nutritional yeast, 2 tsp salt, and a few shakes of pepper. Taste it to be sure it’s as cheesy and salty as your heart desires. (I always add more nutritional yeast and salt at this point. I know.) You can also add more cashew milk if you like a runnier sauce. If your going for Insta-worthy smoothness-and-creaminess, pour your thickened sauce into the blender and pulse a few times before pouring it over your rinsed and drained pasta to get rid of any little lumps.<\/p>\n\"finished\n

Give it all a big stir and serve alongside a bed of greens because we are all adults here and we\u2019re trying. No guilt for licking the sauce straight from the blender. Also, take a moment to appreciate that the cheesy goodness is somehow completely vegan. Way. To. Go!<\/p>\n

Enjoy!<\/p>\n
