-------- ------------ --------------------------------

4 Cups diced tomatoes

1 1/2 Cups zucchini -- diced or shredded

1 Cup carrots -- chopped or shredded

2 cloves garlic

1 small onion -- chopped

1 Tbsp Olive oil

2 Cups spinach -- cleaned and chopped

4 ounces tomato paste -- one can

30 ounces tomato sauce -- one can

3 Tbsp fresh basil -- chopped (or 3 tsp dried)

1 Tbsp fresh oregano -- chopped (or 1 tsp dried)

1 Tbsp fresh rosemary -- chopped (or 1 tsp dried)

pepper

1 pound pasta -- cooked and drained

Sauté onion, zucchini, carrots and garlic in olive oil until tender. Add

tomatoes and spinach until reduced in size (but not mushy.) Add remaining

ingredients and simmer for one hour.

To make this a "surprise" ~ puree sauce before serving over your favorite

pasta. Your kids will never know they are getting five veggies for the

taste of one!

Serve over hot pasta

Can also be served without the puree step, for those of us who like their

veggies!
