    There's nothing more divine than a homemade pasta sauce and this Creamy Vegan Roasted Red Pepper Pasta is definitely proof.

    This pasta sauce recipe originally started as an experiment: I had an overflow of red bell peppers in the fridge from a photoshoot and I was really in the mood for a pasta dinner. So, long story short: I combined the two and created this wonderfully creamy vegan pasta sauce.

    This recipe is: 

    • 100% vegan
    • egg free
    • dairy free
    • super easy to make
    • rich and creamy
    • packed with vegetables
    • perfect for quick dinners

    If you're looking to explore more flavor-packed pasta dishes, you might enjoy trying out this Rasta Pasta recipe! This Caribbean-inspired dish boasts a medley of vibrant flavors, including bell peppers, aromatic herbs, and a delightful creaminess that sets it apart.

    Ingredients and Notes

    • pasta - When trying to find the right pasta, I always look at how well it can hold the pasta sauce. Pasta with ridges and little 'pockets' tend to work better than smooth pasta. I this case I used conchiglie pasta, but you can also use fusilli. This pasta sauce is also delicious alongside gluten-free pasta, so feel free to swap it.
    • red bell peppers - chopped and seeds removed. Sweet red peppers also work in this creamy pasta sauce recipe. If you use sweet peppers, the sauce will have a sweet flavour note.
    • tomato puree
    • vegetable stock - make sure it's vegan-friendly! I use a UK-brand called Kallo.
    • extra virgin olive oil
    • salt
    • nutritional yeast - often also called 'nooch' and a fantastic staple ingredient for your vegan pantry. I use it in a lot of my recipes including the BEST vegan cheese sauce and the Vegan Carbonara recipe.

    Equipment

    • oven
    • lightly-greased oven dish
    • blender 

    Looking for a new blender? Take a look at what's on offer from Greenis - I have used one of their blenders for years now and it has never let me down. Not only do they have a wide range of brilliant blenders, but if you use my affiliate link, you can support this blog (and it doesn't cost you anything extra!).

    Instructions

    Step 1: Preparation

    • preheat your oven to 220ºC
    • wash the peppers and remove the seeds
    • roughly chop the peppers
    • prepare your favorite pasta according to packaging instructions

    Step 2: Roasting

    • place the peppers in a baking tray
    • brush with olive oil
    • sprinkle with salt
    • roast in the middle of the preheated oven until the skin begins to split

    Step 3: Blending

    • add the peppers to a high-speed blender along with the tomato puree, 50ml of vegetable stock and your nutritional yeast and blitz it until you've got a smooth (and tasty!) paste
    • to make the sauce extra creamy you can add a little pasta cooking water

    Extra tip: For me, this is a really delicious recipe as it is, but if you're looking for a little extra kick, why not add some red pepper flakes. 

    Step 4: Assembly

    • pour your sauce into a saucepan and cook it over medium heat to heat it through
    • season to taste with salt and pepper
    • serve on top or mixed with your favorite pasta sauce

    Serving

    You can serve this pasta dish in a few delicious ways:

    • add tofu bacon pieces! You can find the instructions for these in this Gnocchi Carbonara recipe
    • with a little side salad! I personally love arugula (rocket salad) on the side
    • add some greens! Roasted Tenderstem broccoli is delicious on top but you can also steam some greens such as kale or courgette slices
