Recipe Guide
- → Can I substitute another oil for olive oil?
Yes, you can use light vegetable or avocado oil; each gives a slightly different flavor profile but works well.
- → Will other pasta shapes work?
Absolutely! Any cooked pasta will pair nicely, such as spaghetti, fusilli, or penne, depending on preference.
- → Is it possible to prepare the sauce ahead?
The sauce can be blended a few hours early, but it's best fresh to maintain color and creaminess.
- → How can I make this dish gluten-free?
Simply use your favorite gluten-free pasta. The smooth avocado sauce is naturally gluten-free.
- → What does nutritional yeast add?
Nutritional yeast gives a cheesy, savory flavor and extra B vitamins, turning the sauce extra tasty and satisfying.
