II. TASTY BOWTIE PASTA IN RED BASIL SAUCE

Plant based whole food eating never tasted so good! Bowtie Pasta in Red Basil Sauce is a hardy meal that will feed a whole family or provide a single eater a week’s worth of meals. The recipe above has Veggie meatballs and vegan sausage to add a boost of flavor to the sauce. I used Gardein Plant-Based, Vegan Classic Meatless Meatballs and Morning Star Veggie sausage but there are many options available that are amazing! I swear I could not taste the difference between this dish and the pasta I used to make for my kids years ago with real hamburger meat, only that it’s less heavy and cleaner tasting, if that makes sense. This dish is wonderful to feed a crowd because it makes 8-10 servings and is easily freezable for those on the go lunches.

INGREDIENTS

1 can of crushed tomatoes , 28 oz can

1 can of tomato sauce, 14 oz can 

5-6 cloves of garlic 

1 cup of chopped onion 

1 cup of chopped basil 

½ cup of wine

½ cup of pasta water

1 tsp oregano

1 tsp garlic salt 

1 tsp of seasoning salt

1 box Barilla bowtie pasta 

1 bag of veggie meatballs 

2 veggie sausage

provolone cheese

1 tbsp nutritional yeast (optional)

olive oil

Makes 10 – 12 servings

III. SALMON PASTA WITH CAPERS AND CILANTRO

This is one of my go to meals when I need to feel nourished. For some reason, pasta is the only thing that really makes me satisfied when I’m hungry, which is a common occurrence since my shift to a more plant based whole food diet. The combination of flavors in this easy dish is very unique and enticing.  I almost feel like I’m eating out of a bodega in Spain.  

INGREDIENTS

1 lb of thin pasta

1 can of Alaskan salmon

1 onion, chopped

4 cloves of garlic, chopped

½ jar of capers

1 cup of cilantro, chopped

olive oil

garlic salt and pepper 

lemon salt or squeeze of fresh lime

¼ cup of white wine (optional)
