Ingredients
  

  • 4 tbsp Country Crock plant butter
  • 1 tbsp Minced garlic (don’t have to top it off)
  • 2 Yellow onions (medium)
  • 1 Red onion (medium)
  • 2 Green bell pepper (capsicum) (medium)
  • 1 tsp Himalayan Pink Salt (less or more to taste)
  • tbsps Cajun seasoning
  • cups Unsweetened coconut milk
  • cups Vegan Parmesan cheese
  • 1 lb Fettuccine pasta
  • Dairy Free Mozzarella Style Vegan Cheese  (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Gather all ingredients, a large frying pan or skillet, a large pot, a chopping board, a basic chef knife and a mixing spoon.
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  • Wash and rinse all vegetables well.

Prepare Pasta

  • Add water and a little Pink Himalayan salt to the large pot and place on high heat.
  • Add the pasta to the pot once the water starts boiling.
  • Allow pasta to boil for 8-10 minutes. Turn off the heat and allow the pasta to sit in the water until ready to add to the cajun sauce. (You can also opt to pour the pasta in a strainer to drain the water and set aside until ready to add to the cajun sauce.)

Prepare Cajun Sauce

  • Add the plant butter, minced garlic to the frying pan and allow to simmer over low heat.
  • Next, add the yellow and red onions and bell peppers to the pan.
  • Sauté on medium to high heat (7 on a stove number setting 1 to 9) for around 7 -10 minutes or until slightly brown.
  • Add the Himalayan pink salt and the cajun seasoning to the pan stirring slightly to coat all of the vegetables.
  • Pour the unsweetened coconut milk slowly into the pan, stirring slowly as all of the ingredients mixes together.
  • Mix in the vegan parmesan cheese and vegan mozzarella cheese. Let the cajun sauce simmer for a couple of minutes.

Make Vegan Cajun Pasta

  • Add the cooked fettuccine pasta to the cajun sauce and stir well for a couple of minutes.
  • Sprinkle vegan mozzarella cheese and vegan parmesan cheese on top of the pasta.
  • Put the pan of vegan cajun pasta in the oven and allow to bake for around 10 minutes.
  • Serve with a side of salad and garlic butter bread sticks. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of pepper spices per your preferences.
  • Another good plant butter is Flora Unsalted Brick Plant Butter found at Krogers.
  • The Italian seasoning can be any brand as most brands are good. Just make sure there’s no salt added.
