This quick & easy vegan creamy mushroom pasta will become your new go-to recipe! Healthy & indulgent, ticks the box of healthy comfort food that tastes like a treat. With just a few simple ingredients, it’s ready in under 40 minutes and completely gluten-free


Ingredients

Scale

4 garlic cloves diced

1 medium brown onion thinly sliced

9 cup mushrooms sliced

2 cups of spinach

300ml coconut milk

3 tbsp nutritional yeast

Salt to taste

140g of GF pasta of your choice


Instructions

  1. Sauté the base: Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut or olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic with a pinch of salt, cooking until golden brown (around 20 minutes).
  2. Cook the pasta: While the onion cooks, boil your pasta according to packet instructions. Be sure to cook it al dente!
  3. Sear the mushrooms: Push the onion to the side of the pan and increase to medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, a little more coconut oil if needed, and a pinch of salt. Cook for about 5 minutes until tender.
  4. Make it creamy: Combine the mushrooms and onion, then pour in the coconut cream, nutritional yeast, and spinach. Let it simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the spinach to soften.
  5. Bring it all together: Toss in the cooked pasta and mix with the mushroom sauce for 2–3 minutes. Serve and savor!

Notes

  • Before adding the pasta, taste the sauce to see if you'd like to add a bit more nutritional yeast, for an extra cheesy flavour.
  • If you want to cook this recipe in 20 minutes only, skip the onion!
