Sour Cream & Yeast Noodles

This has been one of my favorite dishes since I was very young. Friends are always requesting I make this when they come over for dinner, and it's often made for family functions. It's rich and creamy with a nice almost cheesy flavor. Eating only one bowl is always a challenge. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 lb elbow macaroni
  • 2 1/2 cups (10 1/2 oz) sugar snap peas, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 3 cups cauliflower florets, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 1/4 cups sour cream
  • 1/2 cup nutritional yeast flakes
  • 1 1/2 tsps salt or to taste
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper or to taste
Directions:
  1. Bring 6 cups of water to boil in a large pot.
  2. Add cauliflower and boil for 5 minutes.
  3. Add macaroni and sugar snap peas and cook according to macaroni instructions or until al dente.
  4. Drain quickly retaining some of the moisture in the macaroni and put the macaroni back in the pot. This helps make a creamier sauce.
  5. Add the sour cream and mix until all the macaroni is covered. Your pasta should look creamy as shown in the picture.
  6. Add the nutritional yeast and mix well.
  7. Salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Serve warm.
