Looking for a plant-based way to eat your favorites? We’ve got you! DaVinci Penne, made with 100% durum wheat semolina, is the perfect platform for soaking up each rich, creamy bite of this dish. Is it dinner time yet?!
Cook DaVinci Penne according to package. Once it is done cooking, collect 1/2 cup of pasta water, and set the pasta aside.
While the pasta is cooking, over medium heat, add the olive oil, garlic, and tomato paste. Whisk together and cook for 4 minutes. The tomato paste will turn brick red in color. Lower the temperature and add in the coconut cream (be sure to use the hard cream on the top, not the liquid). Whisk together until fully combined then allow to simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Add in the vegan parmesan, vegan butter, salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes and mix until combined. Add in the pasta water, starting with 1/3 cup, and mix. If you feel you want a thinner pasta sauce, add the additional water.
Add in the cooked DaVinici penne and toss in this sauce until the penne is fully coated. Option to garnish with additional crushed red pepper flakes, vegan parmesan cheese, or basil. Enjoy!
The perfect balance of lemon zest and spicy black pepper works beautifully with creamy egg yolks and salty bits of bacon. This makes for the perfect weeknight meal.
