It’s almond based so it’s extra creamy with a little punch and tang. This recipe obviously also falls under the category of simple weeknight recipes because it’s only 4 ingredients (once the sauce is made!). Of course, we’re not counting olive oil, salt and pepper. I use roasted spaghetti squash noodles as the base,  but if you’re craving actual pasta, you can always swap in regular pasta or high-protein chickpea pasta. I paired this with shrimp because I love how quickly it cooks up, but I’d be willing to bet any protein source would work well with this sauce! Lastly, we’re topping the dish with fresh basil to really bring all of the flavors together.
