When I made this the first time, I literally stood over the plate and said “Wow”. The amount of flavor that you are able to achieve with a few fresh herbs sautéed in vegan butter is kind of unbelievable.

Not to mention it only takes 20 minutes to put together.

You could eat this sauce over any pasta, but there is something special about having it with gnocchi. These little potato pillows melt in your mouth and keep you coming back for more.

This is one of those recipes that really makes you wonder why you didn’t go vegan sooner. It has everything you could want from a buttery pasta dish and none of the dairy.
