Being a raw vegan does not mean you can’t enjoy a delicious and creamy cheesy pasta dish. This recipe uses nutritional yeast, olive oil, and ground sunflower seeds for the cheese. Instead of store-bought pasta, cucumber threads are used as spaghetti. Sliced mushrooms are also used as meat replacement to make the dish more filling.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups of sliced button mushrooms
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 tsp olive oil
• 4 cups of cucumber threads
• 1 tsp sea salt
• ¼ tsp ground black pepper
• 1 tbsp nutritional yeast
• ¼ cup of ground sunflower seeds

Instructions:

This recipe takes about 10 to 15 minutes to make. Serves 2 to 3.

Season the cucumber threads with salt and pepper.
Put mushrooms and onion in a bowl, then coat with olive oil.
Add seasoned cucumber threads and nutritional yeast.
Mix until all the ingredients are well blended.
To make the pasta dish cheesier, add ground sunflower seeds and mix well.

Ideas And Tips:

You can also use zucchini threads for the pasta.

To make the sauce creamier, you can process the nutritional yeast, sunflower seeds, and olive oil together in a coffee grinder or food processor.

Instead of sunflower seeds, you can use walnuts, cashew nuts, Macadamia nuts, almonds, Brazil nuts or pine nuts.
