  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp paprika (optional)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or dairy-free butter
  • 2–3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp arrowroot starch or cornstarch
  • 1¾ cups unsweetened almond milk (or oat/cashew milk)

Instructions

  1. Boil pasta in salted water according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
