Pizza sauce Tomato pasta hmm.. you might have guessed it, Its a Tomato pasta made out of leftover pizza sauce. I made pizza sauce at home from fresh tomatoes for a wholewheat pizza. As usual I had leftover Pizza Sauce. Usually I wait till I make Pizza again, to use left over sauce.
Till now I have made Pasta with white sauce. To try something different , I thought of using the left over pizza sauce with pasta. (My daughter loves pasta).
It turned out so delicious . Its very simple , play with sauce and cheese. I have mentioned the amounts that I used.
Cooking time:15 min
Yields:3 cup pasta

Cooking time:15 min

Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups Wholewheat Pasta.
- Salt required.
- 3/4 cup pizza sauce.
- 2 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese.
- 1 tsp dried Oregano/Basil.
- Heat enough water for boiling the pasta .Water should be boiling. Add liberal amount of salt (I used 1 pound pasta and it required 1 tbsp salt) .
- Add Pasta to it and cook it for 10-12 minutes until "aldente".
- Drain excess water from pasta and blanch it with cold water immediately to stop the cooking process further.
- Blanching prevents the pasta from turning mushy.
- Microwave the pizza sauce for 1 minute (If you are using left overs)
- Add the tomato sauce to a tava/pan . When it comes to a boil add dried oregano/basil leaves and olive oil (if necessary).
- Now add the cooked pasta to it .
- Toss it gently and add grated cheese .
- Quick pasta ready in minutes .
nice dish
