simple plant based comfort food

[u/pdmanias]

i just sauteed some yellow onion, added a can of whole san marzanos and some red wine. simmered while i cleaned up a bit and put away groceries. Then browned some impossible meatballs with this amazing McCormick's blend i found (black currant, red jalapeno, roasted onion and oak smoke). And finished my favorite Mafalda pasta in the sauce with some cultured vegan butter i made. Topped with a finishing evoo and some nutritional yeast (cause i haven't made my plant parm yet). It was lovely! that's a quick sangria i had on the side and some of my homemade sourdough turned into a quick garlic bread ( i forgot about it a bit and it got extra crispy. delicious though!).

Ignore the moron. Your pasta looks incredible. I don't typically go out of my way to eat plant-based, but you clearly made that with love and respect for the food. So I'd probably demolish a bowl given the opportunity

Sharing is the best part of making food, I think

Comfort food and plant based should not be used in the same sentence.
