Roasted Red Pepper Harissa Sauce

Tried this recipe?Mention @plantd.co or tag us #plantd for a feature!
The great thing about this recipe is, you can customize how spicy you want it to be! If you love spicy food like us, you would want to double the recommended amount of harissa. Because of it being so creamy, this will be great on pastas and drizzled on baked veggies. YUM!
