Units Scale

 

Vegan Sauce:

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 large yellow onion finely chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves crushed
  • 1 cup raw or roasted cashews, soaked
  • 2/3 cup pasta water
  • 2/3 cup coconut milk
  • 1 tsp salt

Pasta dish:

  • 4 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 jar of quartered artichokes, drained
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cups mixed parm shreds or vegan parm
  • 1 box of pasta of choice

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil then cook the pasta until almost al dente (approximately 10 minutes). The pasta will continue cooking in the oven. Save water.
  3. Soak cashews in boiling water, set aside.
  4. Saute onion and garlic in butter in a large frying pan or skillet until soft and translucent.
  5. Place in a high power blender with the soaked and drained cashews, coconut milk, salt, and reserved pasta water. Blend until smooth.
  6. Transfer the pasta to a baking dish and top artichokes, spinach, and combine. Top with parmesan cheese of choice.
  7. Place in the oven until golden brown and bubbling. Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving. If you’re not getting those burn marks set your oven to broil and leave oven door ajar and bake for a few more minutes.
