  • While your water is coming to a boil, make your sauce.
  • For your sauce:

    • ½ cup almond milk
    • 2 garlic cloves
    • Salt and pepper to taste
    • Mix all together in your food processor or vitamix
  • Broccoli: chop fresh broccoli and cook in salted boiling hot water for three minutes, then remove from heat and strain into a bowl, toss with red pepper flakes, black pepper and a teaspoon of coconut aminos, place on a sheet tray and roast in oven for 15 minutes on 400 degrees
  • Mix sauce with pasta and top with nutritional yeast for cheesier flavor
