If you’re a runner, cycler, or swimmer training for a race and looking for vegan, gluten free fuel, this is the dish for you! This pasta is delicious, hearty, and satisfying.The roasted red peppers add a deep, rich flavor and color to the sauce. The sauce can also be used in many other dishes. It goes really well with grilled tofu or portobello mushrooms and is also fantastic on its own. By adding less water, it can be used as a dip for your favorite chip or crudite. This recipe makes 4 servings of pasta and about 6 (1/4 cup) servings of sauce. The final amount of sauce will vary depending on how much water is added to thin it.
