Did you ever eat those boxed creamy pastas when you were a kid? Well this is like those, but soooooo much better. It is made with fresh ingredients and comes together super quickly. This is almost a one-pot meal – the pasta is cooked in the sauce. BUT we are also roasting some tomatoes. So, this is technically a 2-pot meal.

How to make Creamy Vegan Garlic Pasta

Start by roasting the tomatoes. Add tomatoes to a baking dish with olive oil, salt, pepper & fresh thyme. Keep the vine on for a fancy presentation, or just grab a carton of cherry tomatoes. They will taste good either way! Pop them in the oven for 30-35 minutes, or until they burst.

Meanwhile prep the pasta. Cook up LOTS of garlic in some vegan butter, olive oil, salt, pepper & red pepper flakes. Once the garlic is fragrant, add some broth and bring it to a boil. Add the dry pasta to the sauce and simmer until all of the liquid is absorbed.

How to serve Creamy Vegan Garlic Pasta

Right before serving, turn the heat to low and add some smoked paprika, non-dairy creamer (I get this in the coffee creamer section at the store, but you can swap for non-dairy milk), lots of parsley and some more pepper.

Plate the pasta with the roasted tomatoes and get ready to dig in. You can serve this as a main dish or as a side. This would go great with a kale salad!
