Just 10 ingredients required for your new favorite weeknight-friendly pasta, friends. Let us show you how it’s done! This garlicky pasta starts with (you guessed it) garlic! And there’s more in the sauce, friends. We aren’t playing around! Canned white beans combine with the garlic and some tomatoes for a savory, garlicky base. While the beans soften in tomatoey goodness, it’s sauce time! The sauce starts with soaked cashews for a super creamy result, and for major flavor and “cheesiness” we add nutritional yeast, garlic, and lemon zest + juice. Add some water and blend ‘er up! Next it’s time to add a generous portion of arugula to the saucy tomatoes and beans. Not a fan of arugula? Spinach would work well here, too! “All together now!” Lastly, the cooked pasta goes into the pot with the wilted greens and saucy tomatoes. The sauce gets added as well, and while it might look a bit thin, don’t worry! A few minutes over low heat and the sauce will thicken to creamy perfection. We hope you LOVE this lemon garlic pasta! It’s:CreamySavoryComforting but freshPerfectly lemony& SO satisfying!
