Spinach and Cheese Sauce

When I was younger and still eating dairy and meat, one of my favourite dinner option was spaghetti with a sauce made of spinach, cream, parmesan cheese and lots of garlic. Lately I wanted to recreate this dish in a way that would use way less fat. Therefore I am not going to use soy cream, but if you want to, you can surely do this.



Ingredients:

  • 100g fresh baby spinach leaves
  • 200-300ml almond milk
  • 3 slices of vegan cheese (you can use shredded cheese, probably one hand full)
  • 2-3 gloves of garlic
  • 2 teaspoons of corn starch mixed with a few tablespoons of water
  • nutmeg
  • lemon juice
  • salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

  1. Cut your spinach and finely chop your garlic
  2. Heat your almond milk in a pot and melt your cheese in it
  3. When the cheese is melted, stir the mixture and thicken it up with the corn starch mixture.
  4. Season everything with the garlic, 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg, some lemon juice and salt & pepper.
  5. Add the spinach and stir everything again,
  6. Serve it with some of your favourite pasta
Enjoy your meal.
