White Bean ‘Alfredo’ Pasta

White Bean Alfredo Pasta

Introducing the most insanely creamy, crazy delicious, and protein-rich vegan white bean alfredo pasta you’ll ever taste! This easy-to-prepare dish is perfect for lunch or dinner, and is really versatile – you can mix and match your favorite vegetables (like broccoli, asparagus, etc) to roast alongside the pasta.

I personally love adding roasted green beans to this dish, as the crunchiness of the beans pairs perfectly with the creamy pasta.

Let’s go!

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt
• Pepper

• 1 cup soy milk
• Cooked spaghetti (I cooked 250 gm. / 8.8 oz. spaghetti)

Instructions

• Add green beans to a baking sheet. Drizzle olive oil + salt + pepper. Coat well and roast for 30 minutes at 230 C (445 F), flipping halfway.
