5. Combine Pasta and Sauce: Add the cooked pasta to the skillet. Toss everything together, ensuring the pasta is well coated with the sauce. If needed, add a splash of reserved pasta water to reach your desired consistency.

6. Season: Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, black pepper, and nutritional yeast if using. Mix well to incorporate the flavors.

7. Serve: Remove from heat and let it sit for a minute. Then, plate the pasta and garnish with fresh basil.
