Dairy Free Lemon Alfredo

By McKenna Ruzga
Dairy Free Lemon Alfredo
When you're craving comfort, a creamy plate of alfredo always does the job. Skipping the gluten and dairy doesn't have to mean skipping out on the dreamy flavor with this dairy free alfredo! Cauliflower pasta and the juice of a whole lemon give this normally heavy dish a lighter, brighter taste you can enjoy any day of the week.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 package Taste Republic Grain-Free Cauliflower Linguini
  • 1/2 cup cashew cream (see recipe below)
  • 1 tablespoon butter, ghee, or olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 lemon
  • 1/4 cup reserved pasta water
  • Lemon zest, for garnish (optional)

For the Cashew Cream:

  • 2 cups raw cashews, soaked for 6 hours, drained, and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup filtered water
  • 1 clove garlic

DIRECTIONS

  1. To make the cashew cream, add cashews, water, and garlic to a blender. Blend until smooth. Reserve 1/2 cup for the recipe and refrigerate any remaining cashew cream.
  2. Cook Cauliflower Linguini according to package instructions. Reserve 1/4 cup pasta water before draining.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Add butter, ghee, or olive oil, then stir in garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  4. Add vegetable broth and the juice of the lemon. Cook for 2 minutes.
  5. Whisk in 1/2 cup cashew cream and the reserved pasta water until combined.
  6. Remove from heat and add the cooked Linguini. Toss until evenly coated.
  7. Top with lemon zest, if desired. Serve and enjoy!
