Creamy Asparagus Cremini Mushroom Pasta

Creamy Asparagus Cremini Mushroom Pasta

Serves 6-8

Ingredients

1 lb pack Delallo Farfolloni pasta

2 bunches of asparagus

1 pack cremini mushrooms

Sauce

1 C raw cashew, soaked 1-2 hours

1 boiled potato

1 C water

½ C vegetable stalk

2-3 cloves garlic

1 Tbsp nutritional yeast

1 ½ Tbsp lemon juice

1 Tbsp olive oil

1 ¼ tsp salt

¼ tsp black pepper

Directions

Follow the instructions on your pasta packet. Once ready, rinse under cold water. Lightly oil and set aside.
For the asparagus, chop off the bottom end and cut into about 2-inch pieces. For the mushrooms you can cut them in quarters. Lightly oil a pot and set to medium-high heat. Sauté the veggies for about 10 minutes until softened and add salt black pepper to taste.
For the sauce, place all contents in a vitamix or highspeed blender and blend until smooth. If it’s too thick add a little more water or vegetable stalk until you reach the desired consistency.
Toss the pasta along with the asparagus and mushrooms, pour the sauce and mix. You can heat the pot and lightly toss for 3-5 minutes for a warm pasta. Enjoy!
