vegan & grain-free fettuccini alfredo with wilted greens


sometimes you just need a hearty pasta, but don't want to feel the nasty side effects. so I created this delicious dish that is super high in protein from the mung bean noodles and cashew based sauce-but none of the extra crap that will leave you feeling heavy and sick! with added greens as a must (:

the dish takes only 15 minutes to make up and you can double or triple the batch depending on how many you're serving.

ingredients:
2 packs of GF bean noodles (i like these!) cook following directions on package

1 c soaked & drained raw cashews
1/4 c pine nuts
1 T white miso (organic)
3 garlic cloves
1 t sea salt
1 T dijon
2 T nutritional yeast flakes
1/2 c water
1/2 c nut mylk
1/4 c lemon juice
1/4 c ACV
1 t lemon zest
black pepper + nutmeg to taste
-add all but the noodles to a high speed blender and blend until very smooth & creamy. drain cooked noodles and add back to a large pot along with sauce + a couple big handfuls of baby spinach and mix well.
-serve warm topped with more pine nuts, fresh parsley and freshly ground black pepper. your kiddos will love this!
