How to Prepare Garlicky Corn and ‘Tuna’ Pasta [Vegan]

  1. Cook the pasta according to package directions; drain and set aside. Meanwhile, soak the TVP in 1 cup of boiling water for 5 minutes.
  2. In a skillet, heat the olive oil and sauté the onion and garlic on medium heat.
  3. After 5 minutes, add in the thyme, basil, pepper, dijon mustard, cream cheese, and milk. Whisk the mixture until smooth, then stir in the corn and soaked TVP.
  4. Cover the skillet and let simmer for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. The consistency should resemble that of a creamy pasta sauce. If needed, add more milk to thin out the sauce.
  5. Season with salt and lemon juice to taste. Turn off the heat, stir in the cooked pasta, and serve.
