✨Roasted Red Pepper Gnocchi✨
This roasted red pepper sauce might be one of the easiest sauces ever🤩 AND it’s also such a great way to get in some extra veggies in the most delicious way💞 You can add this sauce to any pasta of your choice, but I thought it tasted amazing with some potato gnocchi🤍
✨Red Pepper Gnocchi✨
✨Ingredients
1 package gnocchi (about 16 oz)
1 red bell pepper
3/4 cup tomatoes (150 g)
1/2 onion
2 cloves garlic
1 tbsp tomato paste
1/4 cup soaked cashews
1 tbsp nutritional yeast
1/3 cup plant based milk
1 tbsp olive oil
1/4 tsp basil
1/4 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
✨Directions
Roughly chop the red pepper, tomatoes, and onion and peel the garlic cloves. Place them on a baking tray. Drizzle olive oil, add basil, oregano, flakey salt, and pepper. Bake them in the oven for 40 minutes at 400 degrees.
While the veggies are baking, cook the gnocchi (or pasta of choice) according to the package instructions.
Once the veggies are done roasting, transfer them to a food processor. To the food processor, also add tomato paste, cashews*, nutritional yeast, milk, oil, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Blend everything for a few minutes, until you have a creamy and smooth sauce.
*Soak the cashews in water overnight, or in boiling water for about 1 hour before using.
Combine the red pepper sauce to the pasta and stir them well.
Serve the gnocchi with fresh basil & dairy free parmesan😋
