A Recipe For Easy Pasta Bake (no boiling required!)

This easy pasta bake (Happy Vegannie) is an original recipe, if you like pasta but not all the washing-up after, with various pots and pans. This recipe is by a chef and environmental scientist, who has come up with an easy alternative!

How does this work? You simply mix the ingredients (dry pasta, coconut milk, veggie broth, onion/garlic powder, chilli flakes and tomato paste, then pop everything into a baking dish and bake. The broth and milk ‘cook the pasta’ by soaking into the ingredients in the oven. Clever stuff!

How to Cook Pasta (like the Italians)

Bring a pan of water to a rolling boil, and salt the water before adding pasta. Unless you have a medical condition. Not salting water in Italy when cooking, makes it ‘silly pasta!’ You will notice the difference in taste.

Serve with Plant-Based Parmesan

Everything tastes better with a little grated cheese on top. But Parmesan is not even vegetarian, as by law it contains a cheese made with calf rennet.

Instead, just grate your favourite vegan cheese on top. Or learn to make plant-based parmesan! It’s very simple, and once mastered, you’ll never go back!
