Ingredients
Pasta
- 12 ounces gluten-free linguine or rigatoni*
Garlicky Lemon-Pepper Sauce
- 2 1/2 cups small (1-inch) cauliflower florets (fresh, not frozen)
- 1 cup unsweetened plain plant-based milk (I use almond milk), plus more if needed to thin**
- 1/4 cup raw cashews***
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, plus more to taste if desired
- 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast flakes, plus more to taste
- 1 teaspoon sea salt, plus more to taste
- 3/4 to 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 6 cloves garlic, minced (more or less, to taste)
Instructions
For the Pasta
- Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. (As they say, your pasta water should be as salty as the sea.)
- Add the pasta and cook until al dente.
- Strain off the cooking water.
For the Garlicky Lemon-Pepper Sauce
- Meanwhile, bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add the cauliflower florets to the pot and boil for 7 minutes or until very fork-tender. Strain off the water.
- Add the boiled cauliflower florets, almond milk, cashews, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, sea salt, and black pepper to a high-speed blender (do not use a food processor).
- Blend on high for 2 minutes or until completely smooth and creamy. Set within reach of the stove.
- Heat the olive oil and garlic in a large sauté pan over low heat. Cook for 2 minutes, or until soft and fragrant.
- Stir in the cauliflower sauce, increase heat to medium, and simmer for 3 minutes, or until hot and bubbly.
- Turn off the heat, add the pasta to the pan, and toss to coat. If a slightly thinner sauce is desired, add more plant-based milk, one small splash at a time, to thin. (Note: If you add more milk, you'll need to increase the seasoning to accommodate.)
- Taste and generously season with more sea salt and black pepper to taste.
- Serve immediately.
