Health Benefits Of Asparagus

Asparagus is loaded with nutrients, they are a very good source of fiber, folate, vitamins A, C, E and K, as well as chromium, a trace mineral that enables insulin to transport glucose from the bloodstream into cells. Asparagus contains glutathione, a detoxifying compound that helps break down carcinogens and protect the body from harmful compounds like free radicals. It helps to prevent and fight certain types of cancer, such as breast, colon, lung, and bone. It contains high levels of the amino acid asparagine, which acts as a natural diuretic, removing excess fluid from the body along with excess salts; especially beneficial for those suffering from hypertension and heart disease.

There are many gluten-free kinds of pasta on the market, I love to use brown rice pasta but you can use whichever you prefer. To read more about the benefits of asparagus, click here.

How To Make Vegan Alfredo Sauce

The best vegan alfredo sauce you can make, it is rich and creamy, loved by young and old. It is very easy to make vegan alfredo sauce.

Cook pasta according to package directions. For the last 3 minutes add asparagus, bell pepper, and green peas to boiling water and cook for 2 minutes. Drain pasta and rinse with cold water. Place cashews that have been soaked, water, onion, garlic, yeast flakes, and salt in a blender. Process until smooth, scraping downsides. Add the sauce to the cooked pasta and veggies. For gluten-free pasta, my go-to is Trader Joes’ Brown Rice Penne – economical and uses whole grain.
