6 Veggie Pasta Sauce

Pasta sauce is such a great way to get veggies into kids and even fussy eaters will love this delicious recipe. This sauce is made with 6 veggies, it is packed with nutrients and tastes great too. The best part though, is unlike many store bought pasta sauces, this contains absolutely no sugar.

The video below shows the veggies being baked in an oven, but if you are low in time, the veggies can just as easily be cooked in a frying pan. We often just do it on the stove top. Simply add the garlic and onions to a pan set to medium heat and soften them before adding the rest of the veggies. I suggest adding the spices at this point and continue to stir for approximately 5 minutes. You can now add the canned tomatoes and tomato puree and simmer until the veggies are soft. Transfer the ingredients to the blender and blend until smooth. Add it to your cooked pasta, serve and enjoy. You could add cooked chicken, cheese, chives or fresh basil to the sauce if you wish.

Don’t forget to check out our silicone suction bowls. They are great for serving pasta and best yet, no flying bowls or messes to clean off the floor or carpet 🙂

Enjoy!
