We know it’s a mouthful but we’re talking real Italian comfort food here. Most Italian sauces take hours simmering on the stovetop. Not here… The beauty of this fabulous pasta dish is this flavorful sauce comes together in about 30 minutes. In fact, this meal is mostly sauce served over a little spaghetti. Perfect for a Sunday night dinner but also great for a quick weeknight meal. Because this hearty dish is loaded with vegetables, all you’ll need is some skinny garlic bread (see serving tip) and a heart healthy glass of wine. Enjoy...

- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 ¾ cups diced onions

This was a great dish. I was unsure at first...but it turned out wonderfully. I tweaked the recipe a bit. I had zucchini I needed to use so I added that to the recipe as well. I also cut some corners by using ingredients that were already diced. I saved a TON of time my using frozen cooked diced chicken. I just had to zap it in the microwave for 2 minutes and it was ready to go into the sauce. I almost ruined the recipe (keep in mind I am a just learning to cook) when I put DRY minced garlic in with the olive oil. It burned immediately. I'm guessing the recipe calls for the wet minced garlic. Other than that mishap, the pasta was great. I served it with my own creation of low fat/calorie cheesy garlic bread and we even had Tiramusu for dessert!1 replyЭтот рецепт был приготовлен/опробован мной!Содержит вариацию
