Ingredients<\/div>\t\t\t
    \t\t\t\t
  1. 1 large (or 2 medium) zucchinis spiralled (optional)<\/li>\t\t\t\t
  2. 4 cups shredded greens (I used 3 of Kale and 1 of chard. Be sure to keep them separate depending on thickness\/toughness of the green, as the cooking time will vary)<\/li>\t\t\t\t
  3. 1 tablespoon olive oil<\/li>\t\t\t\t
  4. 2 cloves garlic, minced<\/li>\t\t\t\t
  5. 2 green onions chopped<\/li>\t\t\t\t
  6. salt to taste<\/li>\t\t\t<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>\t\t
    \t\t\t
    SAUCE<\/div>\t\t\t
      \t\t\t\t
    1. 1 cup cashews (best if previously soaked for at least an hour in hot water)<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    2. \u00bd cup Almond or other nut milk<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    3. 1 clove garlic<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    4. 1 teaspoon salt, spike, or other seasoning<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    5. 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    6. \u00bc cup olive oil<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    7. Juice of half a lemon (optional)<\/li>\t\t\t<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>\t\t
      \t\t\t
      PASTA<\/div>\t\t\t
        \t\t\t\t
      1. 8 ounces of whatever kind of vegan pasta you like. I used spiralled zucchini in mine and reduced the amount of pasta noodles, but again, it's up to your preferences.<\/li>\t\t\t<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>\t\t
        \t\t\t
        Instructions<\/div>\t\t\t
          \t\t\t\t
        1. Drain and rinse cashews thoroughly.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
        2. Heat the oil over medium low heat. Add the garlic and kale and tougher greens, and saute for 5-8 minutes until soft. Add more fragile greens, like chard, and continue to saute for about 2 minutes max.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
        3. Keep the heat low to avoid burning the garlic. Season with salt.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
        4. Pulse all the sauce ingredients in a nutribullet, food processor or blender until smooth.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
        5. Cook pasta according to package directions. Reserve about 2 cups of the water from the pot when you drain the pasta.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
        6. Toss the hot pasta with the sauce, greens, and just enough of the reserved pasta water to carry the sauce throughout all the noodles.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
        7. Enjoy!<\/li>\t\t\t<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>

          I spiralled some zucchini and cut back on the pasta noodles a little, to make a lighter dish. The cashews make it creamy and delicious and the greens give it some crunch and some life.
