Why You’ll Love These Easy Pantry Sofritas

Many recipes for sofritas start with roasting vegetables to create a sauce. And while certainly delicious, roasting vegetables to make a homemade sauce might not be in the cards when you just want to get dinner on the table quickly. That’s where this recipe shines. It skips the roasting but doesn’t compromise on flavor. And thanks to finely chopped toasted pecans, you’ll get a delightful texture and added nutrition in every bite. Perfect for burrito bowls, tacos, nachos, and more, these sofritas are as versatile as they are delicious. Make a double batch and store extras for quick and easy meals throughout the week.
