Vegan Creamy Rosé Pasta
I couldn’t wait to share this recipe with you! Being allergic to dairy products, I’ve always wanted to create a super-creamy rosé sauce recipe adapted to my allergens. Well here it is, simply delicious! Silken tofu replaces the cream in this recipe and adds a fiery texture to the sauce! The harissa is my personal twist to add a little spice to the dish. Enjoy!
