This vegan carbonara is tasty—even without the dairy and bacon, I promise

When people offer vegan alternatives, often the options are enough to turn you into something like that “Breatharian” couple who claimed they hadn’t eaten in three years and only fed off the energy of the universe.

I’ve made my fair share of claims: including offering zucchini in place of pasta—or carbs in general. Many were grateful for my recommendations. This zucchini fritter recipe received raves. My other forays into zucchini noodles… not so much.

Fine. I GET IT. Zucchini noodles don’t taste like pasta.

This doesn’t taste exactly like carbonara either. But if you close your eyes and pretend you’re a breatharian who hasn’t eaten in three years, this will taste pretty damn good.

Vegan Carbonara

INGREDIENTS

1 1/2 cups raw cashews, soaked overnight

2 teaspoons garlic powder

1 or 2 large zucchini, turned into noodles (also optional)

Salt and pepper to taste

PROCEDURE

  1. Blend cashews, garlic powder, onion powder, and water in a blender or food processor.
  2. Add the olive oil once the cashews have become a creamy paste. Continue blending.

  5. Top with sautéed mushrooms.

This is what it looks like, once blended. It doesn’t look so nice, but it’s inner beauty that matters anyway.

Zucchini noodles are a recurring feature in my recipes. DEAL WITH IT. (Or replace with regular pasta, up to you/it’s your life/etc)
