Vegan Ricotta:
Blend or Stir extra firm tofu, about a cup of nutritional yeast, splash of lemon juice, 3/4 cup of water, and some dried parsley. You can add other seasonings if you’d like, you also cannot taste the lemon juice. (It tastes so good, when it is cooked it literally taste like ricotta cheese, not kidding, scouts honor 🙂 )
Vegan Meat:
Gardein Crumbles cooked in olive oil with chopped spring, green onions, and garlic.
Add seasonings (I used Adobo, dried Thyme, Season Salt, a tiny dose of dried Rosemary, Minced Onion and Roasted Garlic Powder)
Noodles:
Regular Jumbo Shell Pasta, cooked for 10 minutes. For extra flavor add a packet or 2 of Washington’s seasoning (found at Giant, perfect for greens too!)
After shells are cooked, drain them and put them in cool water for about 5-10 minutes 🙂
Sauce:
Warm in a medium sized pot an entire can of Franseco Renaldi or any other pasta sauce (I add thyme, a little brown sugar, and paprika)
