2 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup coconut milk

2 tablespoons nutritional yeast

1 tablespoon Jamaican jerk seasoning

Directions

1.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the fettuccine pasta as per package instructions, then drain and set aside.

3.

Stir in the minced garlic, continuing to cook for an additional minute until fragrant but not burning.
