Fettuccine with Tomato Cream Sauce and Asparagus. Easy tomato Cream sauce with pasta and garlic roasted Asparagus. Use other veggies of choice. Add some chickpea chorizo or smoked coconut for variation. Vegan Soyfree Recipe. Can be gluten-free with gf pasta. Pin this post for later.
This easy pasta comes together very quickly. Cook the fettuccine or other pasta of choice. Toast up the asparagus with a bit of garlic. Heat the pasta sauce with herbs, then add a non dairy milk or cream and pasta and garlicky asparagus. Let it all heat up well. Garnish with vegan parmesan and done. Ready within 30 minutes.
I often make my cauliflower alfredo with fettucine. Or a plain tomato sauce. A creamy tomato pasta sauce pairs really well with fettucine and the crisp asparagus. Use fresh and young asparagus and not the tough stems.
