Creamy Spaghetti

Creamy Spaghetti 

I do love a warming and wholesome meal that's super healthy and delicious! Well I think I've just created a carbonara made with no dairy and just full of whole plant yumminess. It's similar in appearance to the spaghetti carbonara but more like a thick soup with spaghetti. It's got protein veggies and starches in it keeping you full and feeling your best. Take a look at the recipe: 

(Serves 1 - 3) 

Ingredients:

100g spaghetti (wheat or gf corn) 

1 cup baby potatoes

1 cup brussel sprouts

2 tbsp nutritional yeast

1 can chickpeas

2 carrots

1 leek

1 tsp lemon and thyme seasoning 

Pinch black pepper (optional)

Dice all the veg and add to a pan of about 500ml water. Add the rest of the ingredients apart from the spaghetti, bring to the boil and simmer for 30-60 minutes. Use a hand blender to blend into a thick creamy sauce. If it's too runny mix some flour (plain wheat or any gf) and water and stir in. Then cook the spaghetti by adding to a pan of boiling water and boiling for 12 minutes. Once soft drain and add to a bowl, then pour over some of the sauce, stir in and top with more nutritional yeast and black pepper. Enjoy! Save the rest of the sauce for a soup or for more creamy spaghetti later. 

I hope you try this recipe! I absolutely love it and it's a super healthy alternative to spaghetti carbonara. If you don't have the thyme and lemon seasoning just add fresh/ dried thyme and lemon juice and zest. 

Lots of love
