Ingredients:

• 500g whole wheat pasta
• 1 can unsalted beans
• 125g crushed tofu
• 1 jar shredded jackfruit
• 5-7 cloves crushed garlic (depending how garlicky you want it to be) OR 4 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tbsp paprika
• The juice of 1 squeezed orange
• 1 tbsp date sugar/date paste/blended dates
• Black pepper
• Salt to taste (jack fruit is usually salted already)

Instructions:

• In a small pot, add the beans, the tofu, the jackfruit, the garlic, the paprika, the date sugar, and a pinch of salt and black pepper, with a little bit of water to steam on low heat for around 15 minutes. Stir often for it not to stick to the pot.
• In the meantime, bring water to a boil for the pasta. Add in the pasta and cook until al dente, then drain.
• Add in the orange juice to the mix, and stir on low heat for about 2 minutes.
• Mix the sauce with the pasta, adjusting for seasoning, and serve.
