Make a simple white sauce, then melt parmesan into it. Fry up some button mushrooms, throw them into the sauce, and toss it with pasta.





Or, you can toss some pasta with cooked various vegetables - zucchini, mushrooms, onions are nice, a few diced sun-dried tomatoes, a tablespoon of olive oil, a half-teaspoon of lemon, a sprinkle of oregano and basil and some shredded parmesan for each dish.





I also love, love, love to puree a cup of ricotta cheese with a half-cup of spinach (just use the cheap frozen stuff), throw it into oven-ready shells or cannelloni, pour sauce over that, throw some cheese on the top, and bake.Quick pasta recipe for someone who does not eat meat or seafood.?
pasta with a simple marinara sauce is tasty and pairs well with green salads, and garlic bread for a simple but delicious dinner. ive used this recipe before, its delicious and pretty simple.


1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil


2 small onions, finely chopped


2 garlic cloves, finely chopped


2 stalks celery, finely chopped


2 carrots, peeled and finely chopped


1/2 teaspoon sea salt


1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper


2 (32-ounce) cans crushed tomatoes


2 dried bay leaves





In a large casserole pot, heat the oil over a medium-high flame. Add the onions and garlic and saute until the onions are translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the celery, carrots, and 1/2 teaspoon of each salt and pepper. Saute until all the vegetables are soft, about 10 minutes. Add the tomatoes and bay leaves, and simmer uncovered over low heat until the sauce thickens, about 1 hour. Remove and discard the bay leaf. Season the sauce with more salt and pepper, to taste. (The sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Cool, then cover and refrigerate. Rewarm over medium heat before using.)





vegetarian lasagna, most recipes you can modify quite easily removing the beef, and replacing with chopped veggies. spiniach in particular works quite well.
Assuming the pasta is elbow or something smaller like that, cook the pasta as usual. Steam some broccoli and add it to the drained pasta. Use real butter and parmesan cheese to toss the mixture together.





Simple and tasty!
2 bulbs of garlic


1 package of angel hair pasta


1/4 or 1/2 cup of virgin or extra virgin olive oil


2 large or 4 small vine-ripened tomatoes


small amount of fresh parsely





Directions:





Wash and dice the tomatoes and chop the parsely. Set aside. Tomatoes need to be at room temperature. It is important that you have really good tomatoes for this recipe. Home grown or vine-ripened work best.





Place all olive oil in a pan over low heat until hot. Peel and chop garlic into large pieces (try to get them all the same size so that they cook evenly) and place all of the garlic in the hot oil. Cook the garlic until it is a golden-brown color. Do not burn it.





While the garlic is browning, cook the pasta. I reccomend using the fresh pasta that you can buy in the refrigerated section of the store (I like Digiorno). The dry pasta is o.k. but it takes longer to cook so you might have to cook it before the garlic. When the pasta is cooked and drained, place it in a large serving bowl.





Next, pour the garlic/oil mixture (yes, all of it) onto the pasta. Toss the tomatoes into the mixture and top with fresh parsely. For best results, make sure the oil and garlic mixture is still hot when you add it to the pasta and serve immediately.





This dish is a wonderful, light meal that works best when served with a salad made with Romaine lettuce and hot vegan bread or breadsticks. It also makes a great lunch just by itself.

Does he/she eat dairy? If you don't know, to play it safe, make (or buy) a really good marinara sauce. Or buy soy crumbles and make a ';meat'; sauce. Morningstar Farms (in the freezer section) makes some that everyone likes. You won't be able to tell the difference.
I've got a really yummy one.





In Extra Virgin Olive Oil, cook up some bell peppers, mushrooms, onions, and tomato, all sliced up into strips, with some garlic, a little salt, and a little pepper. Pour it over your pasta of choice.





Very easy, and takes very little time.
I'm a vegetarian and I make pasta all the time. This is my recepie';





Take the curly noodle, color pasta, or another of your choice and boil it. While its boiling...cut one red onion, and some garlic and chop them. Also if you wish you can add some fresh cut tomatos. Take a deep pan and put in some olive oil and add the onions, tomatos, and garlic. One my ways to make it taste better is I put in some parsley flakes, oregano, and some chilli crushed pepper when i put in the vegetables. Once they have been a slightly cooked put in some wine..white wine or red wine....witchever one you prefer. let that simmer for a little bit and then i put in some ragu sauce or any kind of sauce you like and i let it simmer slightly. Then once the pasta has fully boiled drain it out and poor cold water over it. Then put the pasta in the sauce and you can add some cheese such as Veveta cheder cheese or parmasan cheese. Then once you have stirred everything together you can add some more parsley flakes, oregano, and crushed red peppers. once everything is done eat and enjoy! =)





I hope you like my recepie?!?!

Fettuccini, butter, pesto and grated cheese makes a quick one- pot tasty meal and is vegetarian if you have some Scotch (in my experience).
