How to Cook: there are 2 ways of cooking this

1. Easy - mix contents with 450ml water and 1-2 Tablespoons of oil or vegan butter if desired. Cook over medium heat until it thickens and comes to a boil. If it is too thick, add more water.  For a lower-fat sauce, use extra water and NO oil.
2. Extra Creamy (recommended!) - in a blender, add contents with 450ml water and 1-2 Tablespoons of oil or vegan butter. Blend for about 30 seconds to a minute. Pour into a small pan and cook over medium heat until it thickens and comes to a boil. If too thick, add a little water. For a lower-fat sauce, use extra water and NO oil.

We recommend making the extra creamy sauce, but honestly even doing it the easy way makes a creamy sauce and when you are eating it on the pasta you almost can’t tell the difference. The extra creamy sauce will be thicker than the easy sauce, so you may need to add a little extra water after cooking. After cooking, taste and add more salt/pepper if desired. Adding oil/butter is optional as it is plenty flavorful and creamy as it is. But the oil does give it more richness, so try it both ways and see which you prefer.

How to Serve:

Mix your sauce with the spaghetti and add some crispy sautéed vegan deli slices on top. Serve with a salad or add green peas to the pasta. Add some of grated vegan parmesan or hard parmesan on top!!

OR use the dry powder as a cheesy sprinkle on popcorn, pasta, veggies, salad, etc.!

This sauce is also great on veggie burgers, roasted veggies, steamed broccoli, mixed into pasta/rice/chickpeas/veggie for a casserole, and more!

Kids love this as a white Mac and cheese as well.  Simply cook 250g of pasta (or more for less saucy).  Prepare the sauce and mix together with the pasta.  Add any veggies/protein as desired.

One pack has approximately 95g, enough to make 2 1/2 cups of sauce!  This is enough for 250-500g of pasta, depending on how saucy you want it.
