5 Ingredient Creamy Vegan Pasta
Easy 5 Ingredient Creamy Vegan Pasta. Think of this as the same category as a carbonara (but definitely not authentic). It's creamy, silky, smokey from the vegan bacon and delicious.
Ingredients
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 3 rashers vegan bacon diced
- 2 portions spaghetti around 200g
- 3 cloves garlic finely chopped
- 120 g vegan cream cheese I use Nush
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp dried parsley or freshly chopped basil
Instructions
- Start by bringing a pot of salted water to boil before adding the spaghetti
- Finely chop the garlic and vegan bacon then add to a large pot with the olive oil, fry on a low-medium heat
- Once the garlic and vegan bacon has fried off add the cream 'cheese' with around 150ml of the pasta water
- Drain the rest of the water from the spaghetti then add to the pot with the cream cheese mix
- Season generously with salt and pepper, this is key to getting a good flavour
- Add in the dried or fresh herbs, stir through and enjoy
