Ingredients

For the pasta:
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 medium 170 g yellow onion, chopped
1 garlic clove
3 cups 720 ml vegetable stock
2 cups 300 g unsalted roasted cashews
1 cup 155 g sun dried tomatoes, split use
2 Tablespoons 10 g nutritional yeast
6 sage leaves
6 cups 600 g cooked whole wheat pasta
1 cup 185 g chickpeas, drained, rinsed
1 cup 150 g artichoke hearts
½ cup 50 g walnuts

Heat a medium size sauce pot over medium heat. Add the olive oil. Add the onions and garlic cooking for 8–10 minutes, or until the onions are just translucent. Add the vegetable stock, cashews, 1/2 of the sun-dried tomatoes, nutritional yeast and sage. Simmer for 18–20 minutes.
Submerge the immersion blender below the surface of the liquid, or as close to the ingredients as possible.
Start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to its highest speed. Move the immersion blender around, including up and down, to blend the ingredients for approximately 1–2 minutes or until desired consistency is achieved
Place the pasta, chickpeas, artichokes, walnuts, and remaining sun-dried tomatoes in a bowl and top with 3 cups of the cashew cream sauce. Garnish with chopped sage and a drizzle of olive oil.
