Ingredients
Sauce:
  • 1 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 small yellow onion chopped
  • 3 tsp. garlic minced
  • ¼ cup gluten-free flour
  • 2-¾ cups plant-based milk
  • 1 Tbsp. nutritional yeast
  • 2 Tbsp. cashew cream cheese
  • 2 Tbsp. vegan parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • ¼ tsp. black pepper
Instructions
  1. In large pot, bring water to boil and cook pasta according to package directions.
  2. In large pan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic and sauté until onion turns translucent and begins to brown, about 5 minutes.
  3. Sprinkle flour over onions and stir to coat. Cook about 60 seconds.
  4. Whisk in all remaining ingredients and cook about 5 minutes until thickened, whisking as needed. (Note: If sauce gets too thick, add splash more plant-based milk; if sauce is too thin, cook it longer.)
  5. In large bowl, combine pasta, bacon and sauce and toss together.

  6. Garnish with fresh parsley and black pepper.
