If that were the case, I might add a little olive oil, a dash of balsamic, salt and pepper, that's if I've interpreted it right! Maybe even a few sliced greek olives, a little basil. Just my humble opinion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 Roast your garlic in the oven. Make a paste of them with a little sea salt. Carmelize some onions and add some tomato paste and cook until it is slightly browned. Add your garlic paste and tomatoes. Toss in your spices/herbs, spinach and beans. Or roast a bell pepper, julliene and toss in when you add tomatoes. Or switch nationalities and head to Mexico. Make a mole and add to tomatoes and then toss in the beans.

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 fraggle - did it have red pepper flakes in it? It's my cure all ;-) A friend of mine made a lovely pasta primavera for us - tomato based, not cream based - and it was definitely lacking until we busted out the crushed red pepper. Instant makeover. nancy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
