Toss with Extra virgin olive oil sauteed with chopped garlic, Toss with a chunky garden sauce with bell peppers, onions, diced tomatoes, toss spaghetti with peanut sauce and broccoli , make a vegetable lasagna.
Tomato cream sauce. It isn't vegan, but it is so yummy and quick.
You just take jarred tomato sauce, heat it up in a saucepan with a little butter, add heavy cream until it's a nice orangey/pinkish color, and then add parmesan cheese until it tastes cheesy enough for you.
I just steam some frozen peas in the microwave to add, and sometimes brown up some fake chicken strips that they sell with the tofu in my grocery store.
It's really good over penne. I eat this at least twice a week.
Try this one. I make it all the time. It is super-easy and everyone loves it!
3 cups whole wheat spirals (fusilli)
salt
1 jar Classico pasta sauce, whatever flavor you like
1 large-ish clove garlic, minced or put through garlic press
2 medium zucchini or some fresh or frozen spinach
Parmesan cheese (I also use cheddar, feta, or romano...again, whatever you like)
a handful of fresh basil if you can get it
If using zucchini, cut into bite-sized and even pieces.
Cook whole wheat spirals (I like Bionaturae brand) in rapidly boiling salted water until almost done. Add zucchini or spinach and let boil until tender. Turn into colander to drain. Reduce heat to medium-low and add sauce and garlic. Allow to simmer for 5 minutes, then mix in drained pasta, veggies, and basil. Serve sprinkled liberally with grated cheese. Serves 4.
Chop one onion, fry until just cooked, add one carton of passata (sieved tomatoes) and 2 table spoons of capers, add few drops of chilli sauce (tabasco) or 1/2 tea spoon of chilli powder, cook for 10 mins until reduced and thick, while this is cooking boil pasta shapes, like penne or shells. Slice a good handful of black olives and dice buffalo mozzerella. Stir the cooked pasta into the sauce with the olives, mozzerella and some fresh chopped parsley. Scrummy
Mix together ricotta cheese and frozen spinach,garlic salt and italian seasoning. stuff into cooked large shells and cover with marinara sauce. that is always pretty good.
Or you could make couscous with feta cheese, chopped olives, and toasted pine nuts stuffed into tomatoes.
I like to boil the spiral shaped pasta and toss it in olive oil, garlic, and vegan parmasean cheese. You can add as much or as little as you like of each. Also, If you boil some vegtable broth and sift in some flour and salt mixed together and stir. The altitude will determin how much you need. mix in some mushrooms and then lay the sauce over some fresh pasta (from the freezer section.)
colored pasta, mushrooms, tomatoes, olives, cucumbers, peppers, and Italian dressing. My favorite
You can add anything else to it. I like to sprinkle a little Parmesan cheese on it to.
Oh after cooking it run it under cold water, it is not very good hot then add everything else
Hi Sunshine! Glad you asked I found the perfect thing for you!
