Fettuccine with Vegan White Sauce




This is another recipe from the show Christina Cooks by Christina Pirello. I thought I would never enjoy "white" sauce again but I was wrong. This dish is thick and rich and perfect for satisfying the need for a hearty italian meal. Again, with no recipe out there, I had to put this together from watching her show.

Fettuccine with White Sauce

Ingredients:
3 TBS olive oil
2 garlic cloves, chopped
2 cups of plain soymilk
1 TBS of white miso
1 tsp of arrowroot powder
lemon zest
salt
pepper
shredded vegan mozzarella
chopped tomato
parsley
1/2 - 1 box fettuccine (or other thick pasta)

First cook your pasta. While that is cooking heat olive oil in a skillet over med-high heat. Add garlic and saute for 1-2 min. Add soymilk, lemon, salt and pepper. Add miso and stir until completely dissolved. (the miso will simulate the taste of cheese). While whisking, add the arrowroot. Let cook a few minutes until a little thickened but not too much. Stir frequently. Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet and stir into the sauce. Serve garnished with shredded mozzarella, diced tomato and parsley.

YUM!
