Add rinsed roasted red peppers to a medium-sized saucepan.
16 oz jar roasted red peppers
Then add garlic powder, nutritional yeast, peanut butter, milk, salt & pepper.
2 teaspoon garlic powder, 3 tablespoon nutritional yeast, 1½ tablespoon natural peanut butter, ½ cup unsweetened almond milk, salt & pepper
Use a hand mixer to mix all the ingredients until smooth. Taste & adjust.
In the meantime, bring water to a boil and cook your favourite pasta according to instructions on the packet.
5 oz wholewheat pasta
Once your sauce is smooth, it’s time to heat it up.
Let the sauce come to a gentle boil (this should take no more than 5 minutes) to reduce it slightly and then remove from heat.
Pour the sauce straight over your cooked pasta. Mix well and serve with chopped fresh basil (or other herbs).
10 leaves basil
Notes
- Use peanut butter with no added salt, oil or sugar.- Make this gluten free or low carb by serving with your favourite gluten free pasta or veg-based pasta.- When serving, make sure to crunch up the basil in your hands or chop it thinly to help release all the flavour.- Extra delicious when served with roasted pine nuts.
