Ingredients

  • 4 ounces vegan Spaghetti Noodles
  • 1 cup tomato purée*
  • 3 purple carrots
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 teaspoon canola oil
  • 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ground pepper
  • Homemade Cashew Parmesan
  • 1 teaspoon fresh oregano
  • 1 teaspoon fresh basil

Instructions

  • In a large pot heat the water for the pasta with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and cook the noodles.
  • While the noodles are cooking, peel the carrots and the garlic cloves and put both in a food processor. Process until fine.
  • In a smaller pot, heat a teaspoon of canola oil and pour in the shredded carrots & garlic.
  • Let it cook for about 5 minutes, while stirring occasionally.
  • Add in the tomato purée, balsamic vinegar, ground pepper and salt.
  • Let it cook for about 10 minutes, until it is hot & a bit reduced. Taste & add more salt to taste.
  • Place the cooked Spaghetti Noodles on a plate, add the Purple Bolognese Sauce and top with Cashew Parmesan, oregano and basil.

Notes

*I used store-bought tomato purée (with salt, no additional herbs) for this recipe - it's often canned or in cartons, not to confuse with tomato paste which is thicker in consistency.
