This vegan loves cream sauce.
Up until yesterday, I don’t think I’d ever tried cashew Alfredo sauce. So when I saw it on the menu at Cafe Blossom, a vegan restaurant in New York City, I instantly wanted to order Spaghetti Squash Alfredo: maitaki mushrooms, sautéed garlic, leeks, and slow roasted cherry tomatoes, mixed with tender spaghetti squash in a rich cashew cream sauce. I also ordered a side of grilled asparagus.
While devouring every last drop of sauce, I drafted the following letter in my head:
Dear Cafe Blossom peeps,
Your cashew Alfredo is the best thing since sliced bread chocolate-chip cookies. Please, can you send me the recipe so I can eat it, drink it, and bathe in it daily? I would be forever grateful.
Sincerely,
Chocolate Cashew-Covered Katie
What do you think? Do you think they’ll go for it?
Or be seriously creeped out? 😕

I tried to make cashew alfredo with no luck. It came out chunky. I’m sure you can do a much better job that I did!!
I had that problem once with trying to make a cashew shake… turns out I didn’t know you were supposed to soak them first lol!
Wow, I will have to try Cafe Blossom next time i’m in nyc! And I can’t wait to see your PB&J blondies!
just made your banana pancakes and your funfetti cookie dough balls for lunch! i was so excited because i had everything right in my kitchen. they were delicious and now i’m quite full 🙂
Aww that makes ME so excited! 🙂
I want either!! Anything with pb or chocolate is a winer in my book 😀
That meal looks absolutely PERFECT. I’ve been vegan the past 2.5 weeks and I’m dying for a creamy sauce to bathe my veggies in. I put Italian dressing and nooch on my spaghetti squash when I made it last week because I didn’t have a creamy sauce! Hopefully they send you the recipe 😉 Or you can just recreate it for all of us!
I love bathing my veggies in my ranch sauce!
Yum!! Can’t wait to see how you recreate that sauce.
PB&J blondies!!
Oh, that is a tough choice, but I vote for the fudge 😀
That dish looks absolutely fantastic! I love to make creamy sauces of cashews, and I have made many after I learned more about raw food! Its great for warm dishes too! Please send them the letter and share the recipe with us later 😀
Beautiful photo Katie <3 Love your nail polish!
Aww thank you!! Hehe I need to re-do it… it’s all chipped and ugly by now :-?.
Blondies!
I’m going with PB&J blondies. That sounds so good!
And if you want cashew alfredo, Oh She Glows has an amazing Vegan Alfredo sauce made with cashews. I make it a few times per month!
Looks like such a good meal! Pb + fudge has my vote!
