Vegan Buttery Garlic Noodles

In my eyes, pasta will always be delicious, whether it is a cold pasta salad or a warm and hearty main dish, fat noodles or skinny ones, stubby noodles or long ones, gluten-free or veggie noodles, pasta will always win. Since pasta is one of my favorite go-to meals, especially during cold winter months like these, I thought I would share my mouthwatering, vegan garlic buttery noodles recipe with you.  With this fifteen-twenty minute easy meal, you will soon be calling this your favorite too. 




 

Ingredients

  • 2-3 servings of fettuccine pasta
  • 2 Tbsp. of Olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp. of nutritional yeast 
  • 2 Tbsp. of finely sliced garlic
  • 1/2 tsp. of ground mustard
  • 1/4 tsp. of paprika
  • 1 tsp of cornstarch
  • 4 Tbsp. of vegan butter
  • 1/2 cup of any unsweetened plant-based milk
  • salt and pepper to taste

How to cook it

  1.  To start you will need to boil four cups of water in a medium-sized pot, once the water has begun boiling add your 2-3 servings of fettuccine noodles. After a few minutes of cooking add 1-2 tsp of sea salt, this will help enhance the flavor of your pasta. 


2.  While your pasta is cooking heat your 2 Tbsp. of olive oil in a medium-sized skillet. Once the oil is hot enough you can then add your 2 Tbsp of garlic. When the garlic starts to soften up and turn a light brown add the plant milk and butter. After the butter has melted, whisk in the nutritional yeast and spices. Whisk it until it is silky, smooth, and creamy. 


3.  Once the noodles are cooked to your liking, strain them and add them to your saucepan. Let them sit in the sauce till they thicken with the sauce. 

4. And Voila! You now have a buttery, creamy, garlicky, pasta dish.

Mac and Cheese Mushroom Stroganoff

This delicious creamy mushroom filled stroganoff is very similar to a beef stroganoff. One of the key reasons this will taste like a beef stroganoff is because mushrooms have a savory flavor, associated with meats, called umami. When looking to replace beef or any meat in a meal I would highly recommend trying mushrooms, this umami flavor is considered the fifth flavor and is known for its similar taste to meat. Mushrooms are also a very high and natural source for Potassium. By increasing your mushroom intake you will notice a decrease in symptoms of obesity, diabetes, and heart diseases, It also reduces your risk for cancer as it is high in Anti-oxidants, Selenium, and Vitamin D. For this meal you will need the following ingredients...
