Creamy Vegan Sausage & Pasta Skillet

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook pasta according to package instructions.
While pasta is cooking, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage to the pan and use the end of a spatula to break apart the sausage. Lower heat to medium and cook until sausage is browned. Transfer sausage to a bowl and set aside.
Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet followed by the onion. Sauté for a couple of minutes, or until translucent. Add the garlic, Italian seasoning and a pinch of pepper to the skillet and sauté for an additional minute.
Add the flour to the skillet and whisk into the onion mixture. Allow it to cook off for one minute to remove the raw flour taste.
Slowly add the beef-less broth and tomatoes to the skillet. Bring mixture to a boil then lower heat and simmer for 5 minutes - or until it is slightly thickened. Whisk in cream cheese until smooth.
Add drained pasta and sausage to the skillet and stir to combine. Taste and add salt, pepper and red pepper flakes to taste. Top with fresh herbs and serve.
