Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Pasta is a great ingredient and makes dinner so quick and simple. Here is a lovely tomato and vegetable sauce that is quick and versatile.

This sauce can be stored in the fridge for a few days or in the freezer for a few months. I recommend freezing it in individual portions.
