Cooking my own meals from scratch is one of my biggest forms of self care. It makes me feel very in tune with my meal and the food I am nourishing my body with. I especially love making my own sauces rather than buying ready made ones. Making this cashew sauce pasta is wholesome to me.

Ingredients:

- 1tsp salt
- ½ squeezed lemon
- 2tbsp nutritional yeast
Instructions:
1. Add all of these ingredients into a blender until you get a wonderful smooth consistency.
2. Boil your favourite pasta (as instructed on the package).I usually use chickpea, buckwheat, quinoa or lentils pasta.
3. On a medium high heated pan, grill a handful of sliced mushrooms (chestnuts, portobello) with 2tbsp tamari sauce and a drizzle of olive oil until crispy.
4. Add the pasta into a bowl, nicely pour the cashew cream, add the crispy mushrooms and I can guarantee that your soul will be fulfilled. You can also add chilli flakes as a finishing touch!
