I’ve just realized there is only one pasta recipe on the blog. It’s funny, because I eat pasta all the time. For me it’s the quickest way to have a filling and delicious dinner.
I love this tomato sauce because all you need is a blender or food processor. You can even use canned tomatoes instead of cherry tomatoes, it’s gonna be still so tasty! It is also awesome as a pizza sauce, on grilled veggies or as a quick ketchup.
And the vegan parmesan? Oh my goodness! I think I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s really good on everything and anything. I use it on pasta, pizza, salads, soups and sandwiches everyday. It’s cheesy and salty, perfectly satisfying. You can make a larger amount, it will keep for a few weeks in the fridge.
