Vegan Sausage Carbonara

3 Make the sauce first. Squeeze as much liquid out of the tofu as possible over the sink. Don't worry if it starts to crumble you will be adding it to a blender. 
4 Add the tofu, broth, pickle juice, nutritional yeast, paprika, salt and red pepper to a blender. Blend on high until the sauce is completely smooth. It may take a few minutes depending on your blender. Set aside. 
0 Cook the pasta according to package directions, making sure to reserve some pasta water for the sauce. Drain the remaining water when the pasta is done.
1 Now, in a large non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil on medium high. Then add the diced sausages.
2 Sauté, reducing heat as needed, until the sausage is brown. About 4-5 minutes. 
5 Once the pasta is done, add the pasta to the skillet with the sausage. Reduce the heat to low. 
6 Then pour the sauce you made into the skillet as well as the reserved pasta water and the vegan Parmesan. Toss to combine. Add a little more pasta water if you want it to be a little creamier. 
7 Taste and adjust seasonings. Serve immediately with extra vegan Parmesan if desired.
