Tip of Stefano:
Making tasty vegan pasta with yeast flakes instead of cheese
When you’re a vegan, there are many recipes you can’t eat. But well-known recipes are often yummy when prepared in a vegan way, and there are also plenty of delicious alternatives out there. This recipe is a great example. The meat in this pasta recipe has been replaced with delicious seitan. Just as yummy, and much healthier. The parmesan cheese which is often sprinkled over pasta is replaced with vegan cheese alternatives: sunflower seeds and yeast flakes. Mixing these together in a blender gives you a similar texture, as well as a similar flavour. Delicious. This tasty vegan pasta recipe couldn’t be easier. Enjoy!
