No more jars of sauce full of sugar, the final recipe today is with pasta the sauce is made from scratch you can make it in batches and freeze it if you wish. It goes well with chicken, fish, or only plain on its own. Best of all it is healthy and nutritious in my house we make this with mince and sometimes it just goes onto a wrap because that’s how the kids like to eat it so you can do so many things with this recipe. Please give this a go you will be crossing of jarred pasta sauces of your shopping lists this week. Just to note I am cooking this with mince so it will absorb the sauce but if you wish to cook the sauce on it’s own of course leave the mince out.
