Cook pasta according to the package directions (don’t forget to salt the water), drain and set aside. Remember to reserve 2 tbsp of water for later.
To a blender, add cottage cheese, milk, nutritional yeast, cheese, garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, and onion powder and blend until smooth.
In a small dish, whisk together reserved pasta water and cornstarch.
Add cheese sauce to a small pan over medium heat until it reaches a simmer. Add cornstarch + water mixture to the sauce, and stir. Cook until the sauce begins to thicken- about 5 minutes. To avoid burning the sauce- continue to stir (See notes below for tips)! Stir in additional cheese if needed!
Add pasta directly to the sauce, stir and enjoy!
