Creamy Garlic Pasta

pasta

butter

flour

garlic (minced)

chicken broth

heavy/whipping cream

parmesan cheese

Salt & pepper (to taste)

parsley

Boil a salted pot of water for the pasta. Cook pasta al dente according to package directions.

When the pasta isn't far from being cooked, it's time to start the sauce. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the flour and let the roux cook for 2 minutes, stirring often. 

Stir in the garlic and chicken broth and let it simmer for about a minute.

Add in the cream and let the sauce cook for a few more minutes until it's thickened to your liking, then add the parmesan cheese, salt &amp; pepper as needed, and parsley. Drain the pasta and toss with the sauce until well coated (add a little pasta water if you wish to thin the sauce a bit). Serve immediately. 

This creamy garlic pasta is a budget-friendly dish that&#039;s ready in 20 minutes!

Drain pasta but do not rinse. Add to the cream mixture.

This creamy garlic pasta recipe is a quick, easy dinner that pairs a rich garlic cream sauce with sautéed mushrooms and sweet burst tomatoes.

mushrooms

tomatoes

Pasta (linguine

vegan butter

garlic (minced

salt black pepper

vegan cream cheese

vegan parmesan (grated)

Pasta water

basil

olive oil

Bring a large salted pot of water to a boil. Cook pasta according to package directions to al dente. Reserve 3/4 cup of the pasta water.

In a pan over medium high heat, heat the vegan butter. Add the garlic, tomatoes and shiitake mushrooms, stirring together. Cook for about 5-6 minutes, until the mushrooms are sautéed down and the tomatoes are looking slightly wilted and ready to burst. Using your spatula or wooden spoon, gently press on each tomato to slightly burst it. Lower the heat to medium low and in the sea salt and the ground black pepper. Stir to combine.

Stir in the cream cheese, vegan parmesan and ¼ cup of the pasta water. Stir gently but swiftly to combine.

Add in the pasta, then the rest of the reserved pasta water ¼ cup of the time, stirring to combine and create a creamy sauce. The pasta will soak up most of the water, while thickening the sauce.

Taste the sauce and add more sea salt or black pepper if desired.

Turn off the heat, top with basil and drizzle the olive oil over. Serve the pasta with extra vegan parmesan on top. Enjoy!

We really enjoyed this tonight. I left out the "cream cheese" and pasta because I wanted a side dish without the extra carbs. The flavors were great and with the pasta and cream cheese it would have made an impressive main course. Thanks!

Very good and very easy to cook , with very good ingredients . Very good recepy

This is my absolutely FAVORITE pasta recipe. I normally find recipes and keep it moving, nope, not this one. It's quick and simple and above all it's amazing taste. The sauce is unbelievably good and it's so quick to make.It really will make you look at jar of pasta sauces differently and like me you just may not go back.Thanks so much absolutely enjoy your blog! :)

The pasta looks so good~ Thank you so much for the nice recipe!

I was skeptical about the secret ingredient (cream cheese) in this recipe, but all of Jessica's recipe's I have tested out came out pretty good for me so I said why not just try it out. WOWWWW. High quality tasting dish and it's so quick and simple and most importantly great. I've been raving about this to my friends.

HI Jessica its Roger from Toronto. We have prepared this recipe a lot this past summer to use up loads of cherry tomatoes coming in from the garden. Each meal has been absolutely delicious, yet simple and foolproof. I think the mushrooms and the Parmesan are the secret ingredients that take this dish past expectations. I once added shallots to the initial pan and found a whole new flavour coming through. This has become a regular dish over here and thanks for posting it for us all to enjoy. Very yummy and always cleaned out pans before bedtime.

Absolutely delicious! I can never find vegan cream cheese in our supermarket so I did make my own. Also threw in some roasted garlic along with some fresh.  Great flavor, wonderfully creamy sauce!  Came together easily too.  Will definitely make again.  Would also be great with some wilted spinach too. Thanks for the great recipe!
