EASY VEGAN SPAGHETTI 🍝 / the everything sauce recipe

in #food6 years ago

Are you a fan of spaghetti?

I know I am! I’ve loved it ever since I was little. I loved them to the point where I would have them plain, with no sauce or anything added at all. Well, sometimes I would add ketchup but only occasionally. I’m over that stage now so here I am with a homemade sauce recipe.

This meal consists of whole wheat spaghetti, the sauce which we could also just call the everything sauce because it consists of pretty much every sauce ingredient you could ever imagine except basic ones and veggie stir fry to finish the meal off.

Let’s talk about the everything sauce now, shall we? It’s basically a mix of everything. All sauces combined in one sauce that forms heaven. The flavour of it is pretty chilled, not overwhelming because we still want to taste the spaghetti, plus we also have the amazing tasting stir fry yet to come so sauce just gives a nice mild flavour.

Also, do you know how much better whole wheat spaghetti taste compared to basic ones? I mean, I’ve had it several times before but today I especially fell in love with them. I think they go really well with the everything sauce (I love this name so much now) and the stir fry and the favours combine together really well.

I haven’t found a good healthy store-bought pasta sauce yet. I mean not that I’m trying to but we all know what it’s like when you have that option – it’s easy, quick and convenient. There was a tomato and basil one I used to love but after eating loads of it I got bored and now I can barely even smell it anymore. Yes, that’s how sick of it I got. And because of all of that I have to keep creating my own pasta sauces and honestly, I love them because I can be the one that controls what the flavours will be, how strong it will be, how spicy… Literally everything.
