Fettuchine Alfredo

Sounds easy, right? Except this is made of almonds instead of cream. I soaked the almonds over night and blanched them. It came out chunkier than I had hoped. Next time I'll just use raw cashews instead! (what I intended to use in the first place but sadly, fort Irwin does not carry any!)

1 chopped onion
3 minced garlic cloves
lemon juice from one lemon
2 cups water
1 cup soaked/blanched almonds
salt & pepper to taste

Soak almonds over night. Sauté onion and garlic in oil until soft. Throw everything into food processor or blender until smooth & creamy. Mix with the cooked fettuchine noodles. (I'm not sure how well it'd work in JUST a blender-I used my too small food processor for the hard stuff and transferred it to the blender to make it creamy with the water.)
