  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook brown rice pasta as per the directions on the package. When finished cooking, strain and run under cold water immediately to prevent from overcooking.

  • Reduce heat and let simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally until the sauce becomes thicker.

  • Like It Spicy: Add red pepper flakes.
  • Storage: Best enjoyed immediately after cooking, but you can refrigerate in an air-tight container up to 3-4 days. Reheat in a skillet with a splash of almond milk.
