I swear I tried to measure things as I went along, but sometimes it needed a hair more this or that. This is as exact as it's getting for me, so taste as you go, and I won't be offended if you adjust seasonings as needed.
Ignore the rest of the plate, just zone in on the noodles. I tried to do a close up, but really they're not much to look at, and they kept photographing fuzzy.
Noodle-Phoni
8 oz whole wheat thin spaghetti, broken in half
1/2 cup + 2 tbsp plain rice milk
2 tbsp Earth Balance margarine
3 tbsp Tofutti Better Than Cream Cheese
4 tbsp nutritional yeast
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp paprika, plus extra for sprinkling
1/8 tsp dried oregano
Salt & Pepper to taste
1. Prepare spaghetti according to package directions
2. In a medium saucepan, melt the margarine over medium heat.
3. Add the rice milk and cream cheese and whisk together until it's as smooth as you can get it. (The cream cheese likes to be lumpy. Don't obsess over it being silky smooth)
4. Add the nutritional yeast, spices, and salt/pepper to taste and whisk until combined and smooth.
5. Remove from heat and toss with drained spaghetti. Sprinkle the top with a little paprika. Try not to eat the entire pot in one sitting.

Those noodles look great and your cutlet w/ gravy is drool-worthy!!
What you need to take close-up pictures is a camera that can do "macro mode". Be sure your next camera has this feature. Macro mode gives you amazingly clear close-ups.
I use the macro feature on my camera for just about all food porn, but the lighting in my house is awful, so when we're eating in the evening there is often little to no natural light, so regardless of the macro setting, the lighting sucks enough that the pictures come out like crap (even on a tripod ... and really at that point I'd just like to eat my dinner!).
