You guysssss!!! This Vodka Sauce was amazing! I have always been a big fan of vodka sauce and the homemade version is always better than a $10 store bought jar ❤ Plus I got to use the leftover vodka for martinis 😉

And make sure you chose a Vegan wine! You can find the entire list here

I love Tito’s vodka because it is also Gluten Free!

This is definitely a must try recipe . . . quick, easy, and delicious ❤

Ingredients

-1 Cup raw cashews, soaked in water for 4 – 8 hours & then drained

-1 Cup water

-5 garlic cloves, minced

-28 oz can crushed tomatoes

-28 oz can diced tomatoes

-1 Cup vodka

-Heat oil in a large saucepan or stockpot over medium heat & add onion. Saute for about 5 minutes, until softened

-Stir in the crushed tomato, diced tomato, & vodka. Bring to a simmer & reduce heat to medium – low. Continue simmering for about 5 minutes until sauce thickens a bit & the alcohol has cooked off
