ramyaramesh3007Make the perfect gut-friendly 10-ingredient pasta sauce that doesn’t skimp on the flavour. It’s also vegan and gluten free!
This SUPER CREAMY red bell pepper sauce is a life changing and healthy sauce base that you can make for lunch or dinner. It also works really well for meal prep.
The sauce is made with simple pantry friendly ingredients like smoky roasted red bell peppers, tangy sundried tomatoes, nutritional yeast for cheesiness and tahini for that extra dash of creaminess. If you are a vegan or transitioning into a vegan-friendly diet, all of these ingredients really add flavour and come in handy for many vegan dishes.
This is friendly for the gut because it’s allium free (no onion and garlic) but depending on your tolerance, this may vary. Remember to peel off the skins from the red bell pepper because they may cause some irritation too!

For gluten free pasta, I love to use brown rice fusilli. But you can use any gluten free pasta for this recipe!
Ensure your oat milk is gluten free too. You can also swap it out with unsweetened soy or cashew milk.
