One-pot vegan pasta recipes for midweek

by Malou Herkes

published on 10 July 2020

Cooking pasta and sauce all in one pot is a genius idea. It's ready in no time, and has the added benefits of no draining and, most importantly, no extra washing up. Pasta releases starch as it cooks, enriching your sauce and helping it all cling together in the most delicious way. One-pot pasta recipes are a midweek life-saver, particularly if you are vegetarian, vegan or just looking to cut down on your meat intake. Here, we've gathered together our absolute favourite one-pot vegan pasta recipes. Once you've tried them, they're guaranteed to feature on heavy midweek rotation in your kitchen, too.
