- 1 cup Almond Milk
- 1/2 cup Vegetable Broth
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese
- 1/4 cup Flour
- 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1 box Spaghetti (pasta of your choice)
- 1 Handful Basil
- 1 lbs Asparagus
- 1/3 cup Sundried Tomatoes
- Cracked Black Pepper (to taste)
- Salt (to taste)
For the Pasta Sauce:
In a small sauce pan, add almond milk and vegetable broth. Heat the mixture but do not bring it to a boil.
Once the mixture is hot, remove it from heat, and begin to SLOWLY add flour to the milk/broth mixture. Whisk in very small batches of flour being sure the flour does not clump.
Finally add garlic, black pepper, and parmesan cheese. Mix to combine everything and add more flour or cheese until the consistency reaches your desired thickness for a "sauce".
For the Pasta:
Boil your noodles, per box instructions.
Remove the stems from the asparagus and chop them into 1-inch length pieces.
Heat a medium skillet pan and add asparagus and fry until bright green before turning off the heat. Add sun-dried tomatoes, basil, and cooked pasta. Mix until combined and cook until the basil is slightly wilted.
Finally, plate the pasta and spoon over almond-parmesan sauce as desired. Serve it with crusty bread!
