Vegan pasta with creamy sauce and roasted zucchini slices is a dish for every day. At the moment I get zucchini from all sides and I was long pondering what to do with it. At some point I had the idea to simply roast the zucchini slices with a little olive oil in the oven. No sooner said than done, and out came a fine pasta with a creamy sauce and a subtle roasted note.
Vegan pasta with creamy sauce and roasted zucchini slices
This simple and quick vegan dish consists of two components, the pasta, and the sauce. When choosing pasta, you can freely choose between a classic durum wheat pasta, or a gluten-free version. For gluten-free variations, pasta variations made from rice or other legumes are suitable. You can find gluten-free pasta in well-stocked grocery stores or online.
The creamy sauce consists of cashews, vegetable milk, salt, pepper, nutritional yeast flakes, lemon juice, the roasted zucchini slices, onion and garlic. This all goes together in the high-powered blender and is blended into a creamy sauce.
TIP: You can find instructions for soaking cashews here.

Zucchini is a fine thing and I love it because it is so versatile. The question is also how healthy they actually are. I have the most important answers for you here. Zucchinis are super healthy and rich in calcium, magnesium, iron, B vitamins, provitamin A and vitamin C. The green vegetable is very low in calories at 19 kcal per 100g, making it a light, low-nutrient addition to the vegetable kitchen.
