We've been looking for some interesting things to make our everyday meals more interesting. This vegan pasta al pomodoro is a great way of making an interesting meal with pasta.
This is a super easy recipe to make and follow, it's quite a quick one to make as well.
The longest part about this recipe is waiting for the sauce to thicken.
It's a great one if you want to encourage your kids to eat health foods, the sauce covers the whole of the pasta so they are getting the goodness.
This makes a great comfort food, I'm sure we are all in need of some comfort at the moment, so you can't go wrong with this!
You could put some grated cheese on the top for added comfort!
We used spaghetti for this dish but you can use your favourite pasta.
There are only a few steps to this recipe; Before you start you need to make sure your carrot, onion and celery are finely diced.
The rest is super easy. You will need to let the sauce thicken which could take 20-30 minutes but this is the longest part about this whole recipe.
I highly recommend you use the nutritional yeast, we just sprinkle it over the top of our meals, though it is an optional step.
Nutritional yeast is good for boosting energy levels, supporting the immune system, promoting a healthy pregnancy and so much more!
