An easy pasta cream sauce recipe that could be made with only 3 ingredients and will rival any Italian restaurant pasta

Pasta Cream Sauce

500 milliliters/2cups double cream/heavy cream

Parmesan cheese (freshly grated)

salt (to taste)

Heat the cream in a pan over low heat but do not let it boil.&nbsp;

Take it off the heat and whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Taste the sauce and add the salt as needed. (Salt is an important ingredient here, so do not skip it.)

To dress the pasta with the cream sauce, add the pasta directly to the pan with the sauce and gently shake the pan to coat the pasta with the sauce. Add up to 1/3 cup of the reserved pasta water to loosen the sauce.&nbsp;Serve immediately.&nbsp;

Vegan Creamy Mushroom Pasta

Shiitake mushrooms (stems removed, sliced)

onion (diced)

garlic

vegetable broth (divided (or water))

tahini

almond

apple cider vinegar

lemon juice

nutritional yeast

Himalayan pink salt (or

maple syrup (optional)

parsley

walnuts (toasted, if desired)

Read through all the directions before starting to ensure everything is ready at the same time.

Start the water for the pasta and bring to a boil.

While the water for the pasta is coming to a boil, sauté the mushrooms over medium heat in a dry non-stick skillet until cooked down, about 10 minutes. If you don't have a non-stick skillet, you may need 1 teaspoon of oil so they don't stick. Set aside.

The pasta water should be boiling now. If so, cook your pasta according to package directions for al dente. Drain and set aside when done.

While the pasta is cooking, sauté the onions in 1/4 cup vegetable broth in a large skillet until soft and translucent, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté another 1 minute.

In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini, remaining 1/4 cup broth, non-dairy milk, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, salt and maple syrup, if using, until smooth. The sauce will taste pretty strong right out of the gates, but once tossed with the pasta and mushrooms, it will mellow.

Pour the tahini sauce into the skillet with the onions and garlic. Whisk it to warm through just for a minute and take off the heat.

Add the cooked pasta and the mushrooms to the sauce immediately and stir to combine. Add additional non dairy milk or water 1 tablespoon at a time to thin, if necessary. 

Throw in the chopped fresh parsley and walnuts, stir, and serve immediately.

Thank you Jen! This was a quick and delicious lunch for us today! Glad I stumbled upon your recipe! 😊

yum yum yum! I made this for lunch today as I easily had all the ingredients at hand. only thing I did differently was to make it one full onion, not a half. easy. half hour. deeeelicious! thank you!

The color and flavor was a little drab for my taste. It looked really good in your pictures though! Perhaps I did something wrong because mine did not look as good as your pictures. Was not a re-do in our house.

My (very picky) husband loved this! He asked if there was wine in it. Loved the shiitake mushrooms. We've been kind of stuck in a rut eating white button or portobello. Soooo good!

This Mushroom pasta looks so delicious and easy to make! I love that it's vegan!
