How to Make Faux Fredo Pasta Sauce So Easy
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook your pasta according to package directions.
- While the pasta cooks, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 cloves of garlic, minced, to the skillet. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce, 1 cup vegetable broth, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon dried basil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Bring the sauce to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in 1 cup of cooked lentils (or 1 cup of your favorite cooked beans) and 1/2 cup nutritional yeast for that cheesy flavor.
- Simmer for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Drain the cooked pasta and add it to the sauce. Toss to coat.
- Serve immediately with fresh parsley or basil, if desired.
