Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups pasta cooked (use gf, if required)
  • 1/4 cup olive oil adds richness and flavor
  • 2 lemons juiced for tanginess
  • 2 tsp lemon zest enhances the lemon flavor
  • 1 cup coconut milk full fat for creaminess
  • 3 cloves garlic roughly chopped for aromatic depth
  • Vegan Parmesan adds cheesy flavor
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. In a skillet or casserole, heat olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the sliced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant but not browned.
  2. Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the freshly squeezed lemon juice along with the zest.
  3. Return the skillet to medium heat and pour in the full-fat coconut milk. Stir well to combine all the ingredients and let it cook for about another minute until everything is heated through.
  4. Add your homemade vegan Parmesan cheese into the sauce and mix thoroughly until melted and well incorporated. Adjust seasoning by adding salt and pepper according to your taste preference.
  5. Add your cooked pasta into the luscious lemon sauce. Stir gently to coat all the pasta evenly, allowing it to absorb those zingy flavors while cooking together for an additional 4 minutes.
  6. Plate your beautiful Lemon Pasta in bowls or on plates, garnishing with extra lemon zest or vegan parmesan if desired. Enjoy immediately while it's warm.
