16 oz whole wheat linguine

1 tbsp olive oil

1 red onion, diced or white onion

2 tbsp tomato paste

1 tsp salt

1/2  tsp black pepper

Cook pasta according to package directions, reserving at least 1/3 cup of pasta water before draining the water.

Add the onion to a pan with 1 to 2 tablespoons of olive oil or water if you’re trying to stay away from Calories, until translucent, approximately 3-4 minutes. You’re cooking over medium heat.

Add the garlic, spices and tomato paste, and stir until fragrant, approximately 2 minutes. Add the cherry tomatoes and vegetable broth. Cover, and allow to cook for 4-6 minutes, until the tomatoes have bursted.  Add the coconut milk and vegan cheese if using. Stir until a creamy sauce is formed.  Add cooked pasta and fresh basil. Stir until the pasta is coated in the sauce, and add the reserved pasta water if needed. Serve immediately and top with more fresh basil. It’s literally one of the best Pasta dishes I have ever made and it’s Vegan. #whatieatinaday #lemon8challenge @Lemon8 Food @Lemon8 US
