Paprika (Roasted Bellpepper ) Pasta

30 Jun Paprika (Roasted Bellpepper ) Pasta

 

When you want something light but tastes indulgent: Paprika pasta is a step up from the usual tomato based sauce and can keep up with the creaminess of mac and cheese. Bellpepper has a natural umami, that when combined with miso and nutritional yeast, easily becomes a favorite comfort food. The best thing about this recipe is how simple and quick it is to make: You just oven roast the batch of vegetables, chop and puree and voila toss them in your choice of pasta with herbs and youre good to go.

 

TIP: If you dont have an oven, dry roast vegetables on a pan instead.
