This Creamy Cheezy Mushroom Pasta is ridiculously delicious, so juicy and so healthy, it’s entirely made of whole foods. The sauce is extremely easy to make, with just 4 ingredients: mushrooms, onion, cashew nuts and nutritional yeast!

It was the first recipe we created when we went vegan 3 years ago and we have loved it ever since. You need to try it!

Did you know that you can make an excellent, creamy sauce using cashews? Cashew nuts are amazing, an excellent source of minerals and vitamins and they are delicious too.
