Souped-Up Tomato Sauce

You may recall my most recent post, Sasha's Super Simple Tomato Sauce.  This is what I like to do to it when I have more time and some fresh veggies to hand.  It goes great on cheese ravioli (my personal favorite use) or even as a vegetarian soup (hence the lame pun).

One batch of Sasha's Super Simple Tomato Sauce
1 bell pepper, diced
1 zuchinni squash, sliced and quartered
1 yellow squash, sliced and quartered
1 container of mushrooms, sliced
Toss all ingredients in already simmering tomato sauce and let simmer until mushrooms appear slightly shriveled and browned.  Chow down with some delicious crusty bread!  (coming up neeext?)

Quick and Easy: Summertime Stirfry

This stirfry is the taste of summer for me, being a dish passed down in my family for years and cooked with only the freshest vegetables.

Ingredients:
  • One yellow squash, well washed, sliced and cut into quarters
  • One zucchini, well washed, sliced and cut into quarters
  • Half an onion, diced
  • Three cloves of garlic, crushed or minced
  • One tablespoon of oil
Directions

Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat and toss in everything. Cook under the squash and zucchini are tender. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm or cold.
