This Vegan Lemon Parmesan Pasta is one of my favorites. The lemon gives it a light and fresh flavor while the pasta makes it comforting and filling.

While I love cooking, there are plenty of nights when the thought of making a meal is the last thing I want to do.

Rather than eat out or grab something from the freezer, I turn to some of my go-to quick dinners.

And this Vegan Lemon Parmesan Pasta is one of my favorites.

The combination of garlic, lemon, vegan parmesan and vegan butter makes for a light and bright flavor that is also packed full of flavor.

Pair this with a salad and you will have dinner on the table in less than 30 minutes.
