Getting tired of the same tomato based sauces? Look no further. This vegan creamy roasted red pepper sauce is an easy alternative that will be sure to prove itself delicious. Low key my new favorite dish. I made this in under 20 minutes last night and devoured it in about 5. The broiled and slightly charred red peppers give the sauce a fantastic smoky flavor that goes great over chickpea pasta. I then topped my dish with some mushrooms and kale sautéed in avocado oil. This creamy sauce is robust, delicious and made from healthy veggies.
Use this sauce over pasta, veggies, or whatever else you want. Get creative! Tag me with your own creamy roasted red pepper sauce. (@copinaco)
