Mushroom Alfredo Tagliatelle

This dish tastes super decadent but is still really easy to make and pretty healthy! The creamy Alfredo is made from Cashews and a few other ingredients and the Mushrooms are sautéed with Onions, Herbs and a bit of Sherry.

Serves 2- 4


 
 

Ingredients

6.5 oz Tagliatelle Pasta ( Any wide noodle such as Fettucine would work)

12 oz of Baby Bella Mushrooms (You can use White Button instead)

2/3 cup chopped Onions

2 cloves of Garlic minced

1 1/2 Tbsp of Dry Sherry (optional but adds so much flavor)

1 Tbsp of fresh Thyme

1 Tbsp chopped Fresh Parsley plus more for garnishing

Salt & Pepper to taste

Alfredo Sauce

2/3 cup Raw Cashews ( I use Terrasoul Raw Mylk Cashews)

1 cup of Unsweetened Plant Milk ( I use Cashew Milk)

1/4 cup Nutritional Yeast

1/4 tsp of ground Nutmeg

1 tsp of Garlic Powder

1/2 tsp of Onion Salt

1. To make the Alfredo sauce: Soak the Cashews in Hot Water for at least 30 minutes. Drain, rinse and set aside

2. In a blender combine the Cashews, Plant Milk, Nutmeg, Nutritional Yeast, Garlic Powder, Onion Salt, Salt & Pepper and blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. You can add a bit more Milk if needed.

3. In a large skillet, sauté the Onion until it becomes translucent.
