This sauce is perfect over pasta or on a sandwich. It is dairy free and packed with flavor and nutrients. The best part, is it is ready in minutes! You take all the sauce ingredients and just process them, or blend them, for about 1-2 minutes and it is ready.
I personally prefer this over pasta with some salt and pepper shrimp or used as a condiment on an Italian style sandwich.
