Reserve a mug of pasta water. Do not rinse the pasta when cooked! Sauté the chopped shallot for 5 minutes with a pinch of sea salt, the. Add the minced garlic and fry 2 mins more. Take off the heat and allow to cool. Make the sauce by combining the roasted red peppers, the sun-dried tomatoes, tomato puree, almonds (drain them first) nutritional yeast, sautéed shallot and garlic, and 150ml salty pasta water. Blend until smooth, season to taste (the salty pasta water should be enough salt!). Make the tofu feta by crumbling the extra firm tofu into a bowl and adding the other ingredients. Season to taste. Add the sauce to the pasta and mix in the chickpeas. Stir gently, no need to heat. Serve into bowls and top with the tofu feta. Garnish with basil, black pepper and extra virgin olive oil. #highproteinmeals #easyhealthymeals #protein — @sophsplantkitchen sur TikTok
