Cauliflower Cashew Alfredo Pasta With Tempeh Bacon
  1. Preheat the oven to 400F.

  2. Shred the tempeh into a small-medium mixing bowl, then add olive oil, soy sauce, paprika, garlic powder and maple syrup/agave, and mix well. Spread out evenly on the lined baking sheet and toss in the oven for 20-25 minutes. Stir after 10, 15 and 20 minutes (approx) and roast until golden-dark brown.

  3. Add water to two pots and bring to a boil for the cauliflower and to cook the pasta.

  4. Roughly chop the cauliflower into a few pieces then boil for about 7 minutes, until softened.

  5. Cook the pasta according to package directions. Add frozen peas to the pot with the pasta 2 minutes before draining the pasta.

  6. Once the cauliflower is boiled, add to a blender with cashews, nutritional yeast, garlic cloves, salt, lemon juice, and water/oat milk and blend until smooth. Add up to ¼ cup extra liquid if needed to make the creamy sauce more liquid.

  7. Once the pasta is cooked and drained, mix in the creamy alfredo sauce. Serve, topping with the tempeh bacon and fresh basil/parsley. Enjoy!
