This week’s Friday Fave is a total flavor bomb — rich, creamy, smoky and a little spicy. And guess what? It’s completely plant-based and made with just a few simple ingredients.
Creamy Roasted Red Pepper Sauce
Use it as a dip for veggies, a creamy dressing for salads or toss it with warm pasta for a quick meal.
Ingredients:
- 1 roasted red bell pepper (jarred or homemade)
- 1/2 cup (8oz) silken tofu
- 1 garlic clove minced
- 1 tbsp fresh dill (or 1 tsp dried)
- Sea salt to taste
- Crushed red pepper flakes (start with 1/4 tsp, more if you like heat)
- Add all ingredients to a blender or food processor.
- Blend until silky smooth and creamy.
- Taste and adjust salt, dill or spice to your liking.
- Chill if using as a dip or dressing or warm gently for pasta.
Happy Friday and happy dipping.
I started out several years ago watching Forks Over Knives, decided to “try out” the plant-based meal plan and had shockingly incredible results. I’ve never turned back. I have lost nearly 50 pounds, and that is just one side effect that me, my family, friends and clients have experienced after making the change.
Having been an incredible cook my entire adult life, I started my own personal chef service, NuYu Nourish, to extend my help to others. I interned under a celebrity chef, became a celebrity chef myself and have been expanding my reach and goals ever since! My plan follows strictly and simply those of Dr. Mcdougall, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Esselstyn.
