...one more cooking post...and then I'll stop...we have actually done quite a bit of work on the house that I'm dying to show you...
...remember the vegan zucchini noodles...and the leftover center bit...
...as promised...I used up that leftover zucchini by puree-ing it in the Vitamix...
...I used the pureed zucchini instead of all the liquid in the spaghetti sauce...
...just stirred in some tomato paste (1 can)...
...I used my Favorite Spaghetti Veganized recipe...and added the onions and spices to the zucchini puree and tomato paste...
...then I added some TVP from the SDA store in NC...
...and I had a super thick and flavorful sauce...
...it was delicious...and you can't tell that it has three zucchini cores in it at all...pretty sneaky...as the boys are not particularly fond of zucchini...
...have you ever sneaked veggies into your cooking and not told anyone?...
~Have a lovely day!

well, now they'll know what you did (if they read this, that is....)
ReplyDeletelovely use of veggies! love, k
I was wondering what you were going to do with the center of the zucchini :-)
ReplyDeleteI do sneak in a lot of veggies in my cooking especially any sauces. I mush it all up in the blender first. I wish I had a Vita-Mix like you. Perhaps some day but for now I use my Wolfgang Puck blender It is quite good but Vitamix is best.
do you ever use zucchini in a cake loaf?
I had some zucchini in my organic vegetable box. I made the noodles - using a box grater - and chopped the innards up small and put it in my tomato and vegetable sauce. Delicious!
