Ingredients
  

12 oz (340g) wide noodles (egg-free)

2 tbsp olive oil

1 medium onion, finely chopped

4 cloves garlic, minced

16 oz (450g) mixed mushrooms, sliced (such as cremini, shiitake, and button)

1 tsp dried thyme

1 tsp smoked paprika

1 tsp ground black pepper

1 tbsp soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)

1 cup vegetable broth

1 cup coconut cream (or any unsweetened plant-based cream)

2 tbsp nutritional yeast

2 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 3 tbsp water (slurry for thickening)

Salt to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Cook the Noodles: In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the wide noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving a small cup of pasta water.

    Sauté Aromatics: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

      Cook the Mushrooms: Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the mushrooms have released their moisture and are nicely browned.

        Seasoning: Stir in the dried thyme, smoked paprika, black pepper, and soy sauce. Cook for another 2 minutes for the flavors to meld.

          Create the Sauce: Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a simmer. Stir in the coconut cream and nutritional yeast, mixing well to combine. Allow to simmer for about 5 minutes.

            Thicken the Sauce: Add the cornstarch slurry to the skillet, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes. If the sauce is too thick, incorporate a little reserved pasta water to reach your desired consistency. Season with salt to taste.

              Combine Noodles and Sauce: Toss the cooked noodles into the mushroom sauce, ensuring they are evenly coated. Cook for a couple of minutes to heat through.

                Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve warm and enjoy!
