Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and bring salted water to a boil in a large pot.
- Once boiling, gently add the jumbo pasta shells and cook for 8-10 minutes until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- In a food processor, combine pressed tofu, soaked cashews, 1 cup pumpkin puree, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, sea salt, nutmeg, and parsley. Blend until creamy.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together remaining pumpkin puree, non-dairy milk, nutritional yeast, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, dried sage, additional salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Spread half of the pumpkin sauce across the bottom of a baking dish, then fill each shell with the ricotta mixture and place in the dish.
- Pour the remaining pumpkin sauce over the filled shells.
- Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 10-15 minutes until bubbly and golden.
- Let cool slightly, then garnish with fresh sage or parsley and serve.
