Vegan Pasta Carbonara

Pasta carbonara's staple ingredient is bacon. It my be accompanied with other vegetables, eggs, and cheese. Sans egg and cheese, and add roasted tempeh bacon tossed in oil can be a segue into the vegan world. Throw in some green peas for color. And for the richness that's typically found in eggs and cheese, accomplish this using a herbed cashew cream, a blend of toasted garlic, soaked raw cashews, fresh Italian parsley and marjarom, veggie stock, miso, tahini, Dijon mustard, and a touch of lemon juice. When tossing the pasta, drizzle some extra-virgin oil for a finishing taste.
