I like this recipe because it’s so simple to make and is a meal unto itself.

If you’re inclined to add a side, a light salad or fresh veggie plate pairs nicely with the richness of the tortellini and its creamy Alfredo sauce.

Ingredients for Vegan Broccoli Tortellini Alfredo

  • Non-stick cooking spray
  • 18 ounces vegan tortellini
  • 3 cups broccoli florets
  • 6 tablespoons vegan butter
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning blend
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 3 cups mild-flavored plant milk, such as oat or unsweetened almond
  • 2 cups vegan mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 cup vegan Parmesan cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 cup buttery crackers – I used Roasted Vegetable Ritz

How to Make Vegan Broccoli Tortellini Alfredo

STEP ONE: Preheat the oven to 375°F and spray a 9×13″ casserole dish with non-stick spray.

STEP TWO: Bring a large pot of water to a boil, then add the tortellini and broccoli. Cook 4 minutes, or until tortellini floats to the surface and broccoli is bright green in color. Drain in a colander and set aside.

STEP THREE: Into a large, deep skillet over medium heat, add the butter. When the butter is melted, add garlic. Cook for 30 seconds, stirring frequently.

STEP FOUR: Add the flour, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Whisk to incorporate with the butter.

STEP FIVE: Continue whisking while gradually pouring in the milk.

STEP SIX: Bring the sauce just to a boil then reduce the heat to low.

STEP SEVEN: Stir in the mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Continue cooking over low heat 2- 3 minutes, stirring frequently until the cheeses are melted and the consistency of the sauce is smooth.

STEP EIGHT: Add the cooked tortellini and broccoli, stirring gently to coat.

STEP NINE: Pour the mixture into the prepared casserole dish.

STEP TEN: Sprinkle with crushed crackers.

STEP ELEVEN: Bake for 15 minutes then serve.
