Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the cavatappi pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add a splash of olive oil. Add the sliced Portobello mushrooms and sauté until they are tender and browned, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Beyond Meat

    Stir in the Beyond Meat crumbles and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, until heated through.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the roasted tomatoes and sweet peas to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes until everything is heated.

  5. 5

    Make the Creamy Sauce

    In a separate saucepan, heat 1 cup of heavy cream over low heat. Stir in 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  6. 6

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

    Pour the creamy Parmesan sauce over the pasta in a large bowl. Add the sautéed vegetable mixture and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan if desired.
