About the Recipe: 7 Ingredient Vegan Roasted Red Pepper Sauce
My husband loves roasted red pepper sauce and has been asking me to make it forever.When I finally decided to make it, I decided to challenge myself to make a vegan version since we’re trying to incorporate more plant based meals in our diets this year.
The result was a creamy, flavorful, seriously delicious sauce that’s healthy and just so easy to make!
So far, we’ve eaten it with pasta, dipped cheese in it, and used it in tacos. The possibilities are endless!
The recipe is simple. You’ll roast sliced red peppers, onions, and garlic in olive oil, then blend until smooth in a food processor. After it’s smooth, add in coconut milk, and then blend again. It’s that easy!
If you need a food processor, check out this one on Amazon. I have it and I just love it!
