Ingredients:

Serving

8 oz small whole wheat pasta shells
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 (16 oz) jar marinara sauce
1 (10 oz) can sliced mushrooms, drained
1 (10 oz) package silken tofu
1/4 cup nutritional yeast
1 tsp mustard
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp dried basil or 1 tsp italian seasoning
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 cup soy cheese or 1/2 cup rice parmesan-style cheese ( optional) or 1/2 cup additional nutritional yeast (optional)
salt and black pepper

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375°F Cook pasta in boiling salted water according to package instructions. Mix mushrooms into marinara. Drain pasta well and transfer to a 7-x-11-inch baking dish. Stir in olive oil and a cup of the pasta sauce. Set aside.
Put tofu, nutritional yeast, mustard, onion powder, basil, garlic, salt and pepper in the bowl of a food processor. Process until the mixture reaches the consistency of ricotta cheese. Taste and adjust seasonings.
Spread tofu mixture over the cooked pasta and top with remaining pasta sauce. Sprinkle with vegan cheese or additional nutritional yeast, if desired. Bake until bubbly, 30 to 40 minutes. Serve immediately.
