Creamy Mushroom Sauce

This delicious creamy sauce comes from The Vegetarian Who Hates TofuBoth of my kids gobbled it up!  Huge hit in the All-American Vegetarian home - thank you, Michele!  If you ever read WhatMyKidsAte you know my struggles with my daughter at mealtime.

I changed up Michele's recipe just a tiny bit...her original recipe calls for white wine.  I didn't have white wine (gasp!) in the house.  I simply used vegetable broth instead and also added in Nutritional Yeast Flakes.

Soooo good!  I served mine on a bed of baby spinach.  The warmth of the pasta and sauce wilted the spinach to a nice tender texture.  Plus the spinach added a nice touch of color.


Creamy Mushroom Sauce (Please see Michele's original recipe: Pasta with Creamy White Wine Mushroom Sauce)

1 lb box pasta
4 TB vegan margarine (such as Earth Balance), divided
2 c chopped white mushrooms
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 chopped onion
1/2 c unsweetened non-dairy milk (I used Unsweetened Coconut Milk.)
2 TB whole-wheat pastry flour
1 c vegetable broth
1/4 c nutritional yeast flakes
sea salt and ground black pepper, to taste

Prepare pasta according to package directions.

While pasta is boiling, begin making sauce.

Melt 2 TB margarine, deep skillet.  Add mushrooms and onion and saute about 6 minutes, until softened.  Add minced garlic and saute for 1 additional minute.

Place 3/4 of mushroom mixture into blender and spoon remaining mushroom mixture into separate bowl from skillet.  Pour non-dairy milk into blender and puree until smooth.

Return empty skillet to stove top and begin melting remaining margarine.  Whisk in flour until smooth.  Add pureed mushrooms and sauteed mushrooms, vegetable broth, and nutritional yeast flakes and whisk until well-blended.  Bring to a light simmer, stirring often until sauce is thick and creamy.  Season with sea salt and ground black pepper.

Pour creamy mushroom sauce over hot cooked pasta.  Serve immediately.  Delish!
