The original draft batch is shown here for comparison; no public structured data is emitted. Base yield: 2 servings.
1 cup cashews
1 cup water
2 tsp olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp nutritional yeast optional
1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
Instructions
Put everything except the Italian seasoning in a blender and blend at high speed for about 40 seconds.
Stir in the Italian seasoning and let the Alfredo sauce sit for 10 minutes in the fridge to let the herbs soften up.
Warm sauce in microwave for 30 seconds, or by pouring directly into hot pasta and covering pot with a lid for 5 minutes.
Notes
Nutritional yeast is completely optional in this recipe. It adds a slightly cheesier taste as well as some extra B Vitamins.
