Vegan Tomato Cream Sauce
Tomato sauce is one of the easiest items to meal prep! All you need is fresh garlic, tomato puree and some spices. To make this tomato sauce creamier, I added in some coconut milk. It makes the sauce extra luscious! Many dairy free creamy sauces contain nuts such as cashews. I made this recipe without nuts for my friends with nut allergies.
Ingredients in this Vegan Tomato Cream Sauce:
- minced garlic cloves
- olive oil
- canned tomato puree
- canned unsweetened full-fat coconut milk
- nutritional yeast
- garlic powder
- italian herb seasoning
- salt/black pepper
- fresh chopped basil
How to Make Creamy Vegan Tomato Cream Sauce Without Cashews:
- Heat a pan on medium heat, add olive oil and minced garlic. Cook the garlic until golden – about 2-3 min.
- Turn the heat to low and add all the other ingredients.
- Cook on low for 10 minutes.
- Serve with pasta right away, store in a mason jar in the fridge or store in freezer-safe containers/freezer bags and freeze.
