Ingredients

3 tbsp olive oil (divided)

  1. In a small pan, sauté onions and garlic in 1 tbsp olive oil until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Once they are almost cooked, set aside.

  3. Drain, and place pasta back into pot. Keep on low heat.
  4. Mix in the remaining 2 tbsp olive oil and mix well. Mix gently.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayo and egg yolk. Add this mix to your pot with the pasta, coating until creamy. Gently mix in the sauteed onion/garlic.
  6. Toss the pasta with the tomatoes, nutritional yeast (if using), salt and pepper.
  7. Stir gently over low to medium low heat until creamy and combined.
  8. If using a cooked protein, add it in here.
  9. Plate pasta into bowls. Garnish with fresh basil and cracked pepper.
