Meanwhile, place chunked carrot and 1 cup water in a small sauce pot and bring to a boil. Cook until fork tender, about 5-7 minutes. While this is cooking, you can add your mushrooms, onions, and oil to a large frying pan--keep on low heat, stirring occasionally.
When carrot is tender, remove from stove and add carrots plus ¼ cup of the cooking water to a food processor, along with tomato sauce, nutritional yeast, and bouillon. Turn on high until carrot is completely blended; transfer sauce to frying pan with mushrooms and onions and turn up to medium heat. I like to cover my pan with a lid too, so the sauce doesn't start to splatter all over the stove.
When the pasta is finished cooking (takes about 9 minutes boiling), drain and add to sauce. Stir until mixed well, then add in the vegan cheese and stir until it's all melted. Season with salt and pepper, if desired.
