Ingredients

For the gnocchi:
  • 1 17.6 OZ (500 g) package store-bought gnocchi make sure to choose a vegan brand
  • 4 handful fresh spinach
  • 2 tomatoes, diced

For the sauce:
  • 1/2 cup cashews (unsalted and not roasted)
  • 2 large cloves of garlic
  • 3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • 2 teaspoons white miso paste
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon tapioca starch
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • black pepper


Instructions
  1. Prepare the gnocchi according to the instructions on the package. Place the spinach in a colander and drain the gnocchi over it (this is an easy trick to wilt fresh spinach).
  2. Make the sauce: place all ingredients in a high speed blender and process until smooth.
  3. Pour the sauce into a large pot and heat until it thickens up. Add the gnocchi, the spinach, and the diced tomatoes. Cook for another minute.
