6 Ingredient Red Pepper Past

Sometimes we try to do too much for a delicious and satisfying meal. At least I find myself feeling like I always need to add more of this or include more of that. This pasta recipe is SO SIMPLE. While playing around in the kitchen, before even trying the sauce my mind was already running ideas of what else I should add to it. To make it more creamy, decedent, healthy, delicious? After giving it a taste I was SO impressed with the flavor, richness and deliciousness from just 6 simple, wholesome ingredients. Nothing fancy, just ingredients that may be laying around in your kitchen.
This is one of my go to dinners when I need a quick, nourishing meal. The pasta sauce could be added to brown rice noodles, quinoa pasta, zucchini noodles or really any pasta of your liking.
There is something so special about roasting vegetables in the oven. The flavors that happen are so incredible. It also requires very little work… so it’s a win win.

This recipe could be made with any colored bell pepper, although I do think the red bell peppers have the most flavor! Try not to ditch any of the other ingredients, especially good ol’ nutritional yeast! Nutrtional yeast has a nutty, cheese like flavor that is sent from the vegan gods! I throw it into nearly every savory dish, especially PASTA dishes.
