Cook your spaghetti according to package directions and set aside.

Heat a large pan over low-medium heat. Add the olive oil and minced garlic. Let the garlic simmer for 3-5 minutes while stirring occasionally until golden brown. Remove the pan from the heat. Add the cooked pasta. Season with the chili flakes, sea salt, and pepper. Stir to combine and set aside.

Prepare the vegan parmesan cheese by adding the cashews, almonds, nutritional yeast, and sea salt to a small blender. Blend on high until the nuts form fine crumbs.

Add about half of the vegan parmesan cheese to the prepared pasta and stir to combine.

Serve your pasta. Top each serving with the remaining vegan parmesan cheese and additional basil, chives, or chili peppers if desired.
