Magic Crockpot Pasta Sauce
Posted by sasha on 30 Mar 2012 in cooking some | ∞
The magic in this recipe comes from the way you can use pretty much anything for the ‘vegetables’, so can use it for crisper clean-out day. What I like to do is chop up leftover vegetables and the “less desirable” bits, like broccoli & mushroom stems, and freeze them. I usually have several bags of assorted veg in the freezer – in fact I developed this recipe specifically because you can only eat so much Magic Black Bean Soup.

Sadly I have neither a blender or a slow cooker, but it sounds yummy!
(oops… ‘nor’ a slow cooker…)
tee hee
I’d have missed it if you hadn’t pointed it out.
PS – GET A SLOW COOKER! You’ll wonder you lived without one. And if you need ideas, call me
