Prawns and pasta are two favourite ingredients in our house. I love to cook these two together and my husband Howard and son Ted really enjoy eating them. It’s a prefect combination for us. Plus I like make cashew nut cream cheese and using it in different dishes. It’s similar to cream cheese and it makes is a brilliant sauce for pasta. These ingredients combined with vegetables makes this dinner tasty and delicious. We loved it! Below is a recipe and video for you.

Cashew Nut Cream Cheese Prawn Pasta is a yummy dish that we really enjoyed. It was easy to prepare and cook. You could make the cream cheese in advance and freeze it for the occasion. All the ingredients in the cream cheese are freezable. I ate the leftover the next day for this meal and they were yummy too. However you decide to eat this meal, as always, please enjoy.
