Vegan Chipotle Taco Pasta!
Vegan Chipotle Pasta combines classic taco flavours in a creamy tomato-based pasta sauce. This sauce is so smokey and flavourful. The smokey chipotle flavours pair perfectly with the cheesy nutritional yeast. I used black beans and romano beans, but red kidney beans or pinto beans would also be great here.
I suggest topping this pasta with a generous sprinkle of nutritional yeast. It adds more delicious cheesy flavour and it’s packed with B vitamins and protein. I also like to crumble some tortilla chips on top. I like the grain-free Siete Tortilla Chips best.
