FOR SAUCE
 
*2 1/2 cups soy milk
 
*3 tbsp miso paste (or salt to taste if no miso is available)
 
*5 tbsp nutritional yeast
 
*Black pepper to taste
 
*2 tbsp whole-wheat flour
 
FOR PASTA
 
*500g whole-wheat spaghetti/linguine
 
*2 cups finely chopped arugula (or spinach/kale for different taste)
 
*2 cups quartered cherry/grape tomatoes
 
*3 cloves chopped garlic
 
*1/2 cup chopped walnuts (hazelnuts and almonds also work)
 
*2 tbsp nutritional yeast
 
*Black pepper to taste
 
*1 lemon (optional)

Instructions:
 
*In a large bowl, stir together your arugula, tomatoes, garlic, walnuts, nutritional yeast, and black pepper.  Let sit on the side.
 
*Bring water to a boil for the pasta.  Add in the pasta and cook until al dente, then drain.
 
*In the meantime, heat up the soy milk on medium heat in a pot for 5 minutes, stirring every now and then to prevent it from sticking to your pot. 
 
*Whisk in the miso paste, nutritional yeast, and black pepper until no lumps remain. 
 
*Once the sauce starts lightly bubbling, reduce your heat to low and slowly whisk in your flour until no lumps remain.  Increase to medium-high heat and bring to a boil while you continue to whisk.
 
*Put your drained pasta in the large bowl with the arugula, tomatoes, garlic, walnuts, nutritional yeast, and black pepper.  Mix together until evenly distributed.
 
 
Serving:
 
 
Pour a small ladle of sauce on the bottom of your plate.  Add in your pasta, and pour a little more sauce on the top.  You can garnish your plate with chopped walnuts, and squeeze in some lemon juice for added acidity.
