Recipe

This gluten-free recipe made with dairy-free “cheese” is a powerfully nutritious version of America’s favorite comfort food. For a hearty snack that incorporates several super foods, top this dish with Super Sprinkles. Wash it down with acai juice and enjoy some figs on the side.


Place all ingredients except salt and pasta in a saucepan. Heat for about 2 minutes over medium heat until mixture comes to a boil. It will thicken quickly. Taste and add salt, if necessary.

Prepare gluten-free pasta according to package directions.

Drain.

Pour sauce over pasta, stirring gently to combine. Serve hot.

*TIP Gluten-free penne pasta is available at natural food stores.
