Rich and Creamy Lowfat Vegan Alfredo

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

* 1 pkg. lowfat silken tofu
* 3 tablespoon vegan butter-flavored powder
* 1/4 cup vegan soy parmesan
* 2T nutritional yeast
* veggie broth
* salt and pepper to taste
* cooked rotini, or your favorite

Directions:

Blend all sauce ingredients, adding enough broth to make a smooth and
creamy consistency and heat gently. Serve over pasta one scant
quarter-cup per person.

Variations:

Spinach Alfredo - add one 10 oz. package of frozen chopped spinach,
thawed and drained, after blending. Adding it before blending makes it
look rather disgusting, like green slime. It still tastes good if you
can get past the color.

Tomato Alfredo - substitute low-sodium V8 for broth, add tomato paste
to taste. My vitamin-hating, junk-food-loving son pronounced this "a
keeper".

Serves: 4 or more

Preparation time: 5 mins.
