Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

6 tablespoons olive oil

1 cup diced onions

1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic

1/2 cup diced red bell peppers

1/2 cup chopped scallions

3 tablespoons chopped basil -- packed (or 1 tablespoon dried basil)

6 tablespoons unbleached flour

1 quart soy milk

3/4 cup pureed butternut or other squash -- optional

3 tablespoons nutritional yeast

1 tablespoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 teaspoon ground fennel seeds (optional) -- (1/2 to 1)

1 cup sliced mushrooms

1 cup sliced carrots -- steamed

1 cup thinly sliced celery -- cut on the diagonal

6 cups cooked pasta

Chives and tomatoes -- for garnish

 

Heat the oil in a medium saucepan. Sauté the onions, garlic, bell peppers,

scallions, and basil for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the flour. Then

gradually add the soy milk, continuing to stir, to create a smooth cream sauce.

Also add the squash, if you wish. Cook for 5 minutes longer on a low heat.

 

Add the yeast, salt, pepper, and ground fennel (if you wish) and mix well. Then

stir the mushrooms, celery, and steamed carrots into the sauce. Cook for 3 to 5

minutes over low heat. Spoon the vegetable sauce over prepared pasta and garnish

with chopped chives and a tomato-peel rose on each plate.

buttery, creamy pasta dish. The vegetable sauce is also superb over baked

potatoes instead of pasta.
