Sneaky Pasta Sauce

So my first attempt at sneaking some extra veggies in went relatively well. I didn't mind the taste, Big D inhaled his pasta, Little D was impartial, but M caught on instantly that something was off and gagged slightly when he discovered the addition to be carrots. He's not a fan of cooked ones IN something. A little parm cheese helped and he ate his meal right up. So this is the recipe for the sauce. It uses leftover sauce from last night's chicken, with the addition of my first sneaky puree. Enjoy!

Sneaky Pasta Sauce
  • 1 lb penne noodles, cooked
  • 2 1/2 cups Fresh Tomato and Basil Sauce (see recipe from Sept 6th - OR use any homemade tomato sauce)
  • 1 cup Carrot and Cauliflower puree (see previous post)
  • 1/4 cup fresh parmesan cheese, grated
  • s&p (optional)
1. In a large pot, stir together tomato sauce and puree. Heat over med heat until just starting to boil. Add in cooked penne noodles and heat an additional 2 minutes.
2. Serve pasta on a large plate, top with some parm cheese and s&p if desired, pair with bread, salad, and/or wine and ENJOY!
