Tomato Vegetable Sauce
- add review
- #128186
This is an easy, all purpose red sauce that can be used as a pasta or pizza sauce. You can also use it in any recipe calling for canned tomato sauce - it's that versatile! Plus it has extra vitamins from the secret ingredient (carrots!) in it so it's a healthier option. It goes great in either vegetarian or meaty lasagna recipes, and makes a simple spaghetti sauce as is or add some browned meat to make a heartier meal.

Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.
