Vegan Spicy Vodka Pasta

Vegan Spicy Vodka Pasta! OKKK so I made a vegan version of my creamy spicy vodka sauce and OH MY GOD it is to die for. I was skeptical at first, but I am so happy I was able to find amazing dairy-free alternatives to make this amazing. Jacob and I were so impressed. If you want a creamy, delicious, easy pasta but can't have the cheese - this is for you! It was so much fun to experiment with vegan options and I cannot wait to make this again.
