Hey Guys!
When I moved in with my boyfriend, I was blessed that he was able to cook. We had such an odd schedule, that at the beginning he was the one doing all the cooking. I would come home about 30-45 min after him, which meant dinner was made by him.
One of his specialties was his pasta sauce. It is meaty, but also has a lot of vegetables which is appealing to everyone. Now we make this together, which is such a great bonding experience.
Ingredients
4 Peppers ( yellow, red and orange)
1 Onion
5 Cloves of Garlic
Tomatoes(optional)
2 cans Tomatoe Paste (156 ml)
Pasta Sauce
Meat (turkey/beef) 1 lb
Sausage
Place the ground meat in the pan, once it is browned, or nearly browned add in the sausage. We take the sausage out of the casing and grind it up. We recently saw chopped up spicy sausage in the deli section of our grocery store, it is near the pepperoni, you can always use that as an alternative.
Chop up the peppers, onion, garlic and tomatoes. The tomatoes are optional and we only add those in, if we have them in the fridge. In a separate pan, put in the vegetables and cook on medium heat
While the vegetables are cooking, drain the fat from the meat and set aside
My boyfriend likes to add seasoning to the vegetables, which is optional as well, he adds some parsley, oregano and salt and pepper
Once the vegetables are cooked through, add the meat, pasta sauce, tomato sauce and tomato paste, cook on low for about 30min-60min
Once the sauce is simmering start on the noodles. By the time the noodles are done, so is the sauce!
This is a family favorite. I am not much of a meat eater, and one of the things I love is how packed it is with vegetables. You can always add whichever vegetables are appealing to you. Another great thing about this, is Kayden loves it! It is a great way for Kayden to eat some vegetables, I always give him a small amount of pasta and lots of sauce!
Happy Cooking!
