Ingredients and Substitutions
- oil – To sauté.
- aromatics – Onion and garlic are the base flavors for this rosé sauce recipe.

- tomato puree – Part of what gives this sauce its lovely pink color. It adds so much great umami flavor!
- non-dairy cream – You can use cashew cream, non-dairy yogurt, or vegan cream cheese. Choose soy-free and/or nut-free, if needed.
- nutritional yeast – Adds more umami and a cheesy flavor. If you don’t like nutritional yeast, you can use miso dissolved in a little hot water instead.

💡 Tips
- If the pan starts to look dry when you’re sautéing the onion and garlic, add a little splash of water. This will not only add moisture but help conduct the heat, so the onion will brown more evenly.
- Make a double batch of the sauce to use later with cooked pasta
