15-Minute Meal: Carrot Spaghetti with Instant Creamy Veggie Sauce

Instructions:

1. Prepare Carrot Spaghetti: Use a spiralizer to turn the carrots into spaghetti-like strands. If you don’t have a spiralizer, you can use a vegetable peeler to make thin ribbons. Set aside.
2. Sauté Onions and Garlic: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until the onions become translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
3. Make the Creamy Veggie Sauce: In a blender, combine the sautéed onion and garlic, fresh spinach, soaked cashews, and vegetable broth. Blend until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Cook Carrot Spaghetti: In the same skillet used for the onions, add the carrot spaghetti. Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until the carrot is tender but still has a bit of crunch. Be careful not to overcook as the carrots can become too soft.
5. Combine and Serve: Pour the creamy veggie sauce over the cooked carrot spaghetti. Toss everything together until the carrot spaghetti is evenly coated with the sauce. Heat through for about 2 minutes, then remove from heat.
6. Garnish and Enjoy: Serve the carrot spaghetti hot, garnished with fresh herbs like chopped parsley or basil for an extra touch of flavor.
