pasta help

[Miss Unsure]

I made pasta for dinner. My sauce was kind of frothy. I just used what I had at the house, so it was a 75 out of 100 to me. It was good and filling.
My sauce consisted of a tomato, garlic and spices. It was frothy so what could i have done to make it more sauce like?
Should I have squeezed the seeds out instead of using them? Will sun dried tomatoes make a difference?
Where can i get a spiral slicer?

Frothy sounds like you used a blender or food processor. What did you use to make it?

Yes, I think a handful of sun dried tomatoes would make a difference, as would a little fat, maybe some olive oil, and I like to add a hunk of red bell pepper for sweetness.

Sausage and cheese? :(


Ok, so now this looks like I'm an idiot. There was a post above me that mentioned sausage & cheese and it was deleted.

I don't really care for tomato sauce myself. I make this alfredo sauce recipe (http://therawtarian.com/raw-alfredo-sauce-recipe/) myself. It does the trick for me when I'm looking for "pasta."

LOL Mindy Sue. That cracked me up. Thanks.

Laura---that alfredo sauce sounds delish. Thanks for the link.

Oh Mindy Sue! Too funny!! Now I'm wondering what we missed! Renegade carnivore!

For frothy sauce, you can dice the majority tomatoes instead of processing them, just use a little for the base and add the fat (evoo/nuts) and definitely some sundrieds.

The sun dried tomatoes is what thickens it and really lends a nice flavor. Try Alissa's Marinara sauce recipe and you'll love it. Even non raw fooders enjoy this sauce. Oh, she also has an alfredo sauce that is really good.

I just bought the "World Cuisine Tri-Blade Plastic Spiral Vegetable Slicer" from Amazon and LOVE IT. I am sure there are better ones out there but for the money it works great.
