Spaghetti with sauce of roasted vegetables

This spaghetti with roasted vegetable sauce is a spaghetti with lots of vegetables! Would you like to eat more vegetables or, for example, do you have children who have trouble eating vegetables? This spaghetti with lots of vegetables is the perfect solution. This spaghetti contains lots of hidden vegetables in the sauce. Roast them in the oven and blend them into a smooth sauce. You won't taste a thing, so success is guaranteed. I went for paprika and zucchini with fresh herbs and strained tomatoes, but if you prefer other vegetables, that's possible too.

Want to eat more vegetables without being noticed? A pasta sauce with hidden vegetables is the solution! Perfect for kids (and adults) who struggle with vegetables, or just as an easy way to get extra nutrients.

The great thing is that you don't actually need a set recipe. Start with a base of tomatoes or diced tomatoes. Add all kinds of vegetables to this, such as carrots, bell bell pepper, zucchini, cauliflower or spinach. Even leftovers from the fridge can go in! Sauté everything gently with some onion and garlic for extra flavor.

The secret? Puree the sauce! This eliminates the bits of vegetables and gives you a smooth, creamy sauce that is packed with vitamins. For extra flavor, add herbs like oregano, basil or thyme. Want a creamier version? A dash of cooking cream or a spoonful of ricotta works wonders.

This sauce goes perfectly with any kind of pasta, as well as a base for lasagna or casseroles. Make a big pan right away and freeze portions for later. That way you always have a healthy meal on hand.

With this easy and nutritious sauce, you will eat more vegetables unnoticed - and enjoy a delicious meal!

You probably already knew that making your own sauces is much tastier anyway. I've been saying that for years. Especially when you just use fresh vegetables from the supermarket, you can't go wrong. In the beginning I was always surprised at how easy it actually was. I always thought it would take much more time (or money) to make your own sauce, but nothing could be further from the truth. It's really fast and much cheaper than those expensive jarred sauces that are often full of junk and don't really contain any vegetables at all. Would you like some more inspiration for sauces with hidden vegetables? Then try this orzo with kale sauce or this pasta with pumpkin sauce. Both also very simple and incredibly flavorful!
