The spicy vodka pasta shared by Gigi Hadid is one of the most viral recipes out there. In her version, she uses heavy cream, which we’ve swapped for our homemade cashew cream. It is delicious and super easy to make! Our take ✨ this pasta recipe is so tasty, I can see why everyone is obsessed with it! It’s creamy and super comforting. We’ve already made it a few times since tasting it. This pasta is super spicy, which I love, but you might want to start with half the chilli flakes and build up from there. Vodka is optional if you don’t have it on hand. To make it more nourishing, I like to serve it with a side of grilled broccoli with lemon and chopped almonds (my go-to pasta side!). If you’re looking to bump your protein intake, you can add some silken tofu to the cashew cream and blend it together (promise you won’t taste it!).
