Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200C. In an oven-safe dish, combine the butternut, onion, oregano, and garlic head. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Roast for 30 minutes.
Step 2
While the vegetables are roasting, cook your pasta according to the packet instructions.
Step 3
Once the vegetables are roasted, transfer them to a food processor or blender. Add the sun-dried tomatoes, silken tofu, and lemon juice. Squeeze out the roasted garlic and add it to the blender. Process until the mixture is smooth.
Step 4
Combine the sauce with the cooked pasta. Cook on low heat for a couple of minutes to heat up the sauce.
Step 5
To serve, top the pasta with toasted pine nuts, fresh arugula, and basil.
