Creamy Rosemary Garlic Pasta
Creamy like alfredo sauce, but light and nourishing. This rosemary garlic sauce is rich and delicious — and made from navy beans!
Among my greatest discoveries of this past year was that bean dip transforms into an incredibly creamy, delicious pasta sauce. This rosemary garlic sauce (made with a base of navy beans) is similar in texture and quality to alfredo sauce, but way better for you! That’s because this sauce oil-free, significantly lower in fat, and packed with protein and fiber from beans. This sauce is truly the easiest way to elevate any pasta dish.
All you need is a tub of Beans for Beings Rosemary Garlic Navy Bean Dip, a box of your favorite pasta, veggies, and you’ll have a nourishing dinner within minutes!
I personally love pairing this sauce with broccoli and spinach, but it’s really versatile enough to pair with a variety of veggies!
