Creamy Vegan Tomato Sage Spaghetti

Well, bless my soul! Just a tick ago, I happened upon this pretty-as-a-picture pale green sage bush in our modest little garden here in London.

Y’all are probably wondering how I didn’t notice that beauty for a whole year? Beats me too!

Now, every time I mosey on past, either headin’ out or comin’ back to the house, I pinch one of them fragrant leaves ‘n take a good ol’ whiff of that delightful herbal summer perfume.

Why don’t ya know, I’ve taken to tossin’ fresh sage leaves into just ’bout every meal now – as you do when you’ve got such bounty at hand!

This fine day, though, I’m fixin’ to share with y’all my most treasured recipe featuring sage (so far): Creamy Tomato Sage Pasta. It’s finger-lickin’ good and easy as pie to whip up.

That’s why this dish quickly earned its place as my staple dinner recipe and will be starrin’ in the menu for a festival I’ll be helpin’ organise come next weekend.

Now don’t you go deny yourself: make this your next lunch or dinner. Promise ya won’t regret it.
