Making delicious vegan food doesn’t need to be time consuming and complicated. This Vegan Sausage Pasta dish is full of flavor and is super easy to make. This is a great dish to make when you are short on time and you still want a delicious, flavorful meal!
I use Beyond Meat Spicy Italian Sausage in this recipe, but you can use whatever vegan sausage you like best. I do recommend sticking with a savory dinner sausage; this isn’t going to taste quite right if you’re cooking up maple breakfast sausage, so use your own best judgement… or just stick with the recipe.
The pasta choice is also totally up to you! I used Rotini in this recipe, and penne is also another fan favorite; but really, you could use whatever pasta you have in your pantry. Lentil penne or chickpea rotini are great options if you are gluten-free, just be sure to use a gluten-free vegan sausage as well.

Add the sausages and cook for approximately 10 minutes, flipping them and stirring the onions occasionally until the sausages are browned on both sides.

Add the cooked pasta to the pan, and toss ingredients together. Stir in the parsley and serve hot. Enjoy!
