Vegan Ravioli Filling

Ingredients:
1 cup of cooked and mashed butternut squash
1/2 cup of raw cashews, soaked and drained
1/4 cup of nutritional yeast
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon of olive oil
1/2 teaspoon of dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon of dried sage
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
Start by soaking the cashews in hot water for about 15-20 minutes. Drain the water and set aside.
In a food processor, combine the mashed butternut squash, soaked cashews, nutritional yeast, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, dried thyme, dried sage, salt, and pepper.
Process the mixture until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the processor bowl as needed.
Taste the filling and adjust the seasoning according to your preferences.
Once the filling is ready, you can use it to stuff your ravioli. Follow the instructions of your preferred pasta dough recipe to make the ravioli, and fill them with a spoonful of the vegan filling.
Cook the ravioli according to the pasta dough recipe or package instructions until they are tender and cooked through.
Serve the vegan ravioli with your favorite sauce or simply toss them in some olive oil and fresh herbs.
