Ingredients

2.5 cups cashews
2 cups unsweetened dairy free milk (oat or cashew is great)I
1 cup Dairy Free Parmesan cheese (homemade or store bought)
4 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon onion powder
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
Optional: 1 lb pasta noodles *use gluten free if needed* (or see above post for options to use other than sauce)

Instructions

In a very high powdered blender, like a Vitamix, you can just add the cashews to the blender and proceeded with the recipe without soaking.
If you do not have a high powdered blender:
Soak your raw cashews by placing them in a jar and cover with water for 6-8 hours or overnight.
*If you need this recipe faster, boil the cashews in water for 30 minutes. Remove from heat, drain, and continue with recipe.
Once your cashews are ready, place all the ingredients into a high powdered blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy.
If dairy free Alfredo sauce recipe is too thick, drizzle a little more unsweetened almond milk inside until desired consistency. Remember, this is supposed to be a thicker sauce as you really want it to coat and stick to those favorite pasta noodles of yours.
Pour sauce onto hot pasta noodles or place into an air tight container for up to 1 week and place in fridge until ready to use. Sauce will thicken upon being in refrigerator.
