Creamy Asparagus Noodles with Chorico

I am vegan, because no animal should suffer for my enjoyment. Recipes and ideas for the vegan lifestyle can be found on my blog.
A quick and light seasonal meal, with the lightness of the asparagus and the Mediterranean flair of the Vegourmet choricos - thanks to four different varieties, ranging from mild smokey to intense spicy flavor.

Ingredients

2-3 servings

Preparation

Preparation Time: approx. 20 min.

Cook the spaghetti, per package instructions, in plenty of salted water until they are al dente. Reserve some of the water for the recipe.

In the meantime, prepare the asparagus by removing the hard ends. Heat the oil in a pan and add the asparagus and garlic. Over medium heat sauté for a few minutes until the asparagus is almost done. Add the chorico and cook for another three minutes.

Add the vegan cream and 4 tbsp from the pasta water and cook long enough to heat the cream. Remove from the stove and, while stirring, add the nutritional yeast. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add the spaghetti and serve.

Tip: Instead of green asparagus you an also use string beans!
