Tip

I used a 500g bag of pasta and it made more than enough for two adults and a toddler for two dinners and lunch. Perfect to use up veggies that are on their way out!  Make up a batch and throw it in the freezer for a super easy meal when you can't be bothered doing much cooking tmrc_emoticons.)

    Love this recipe. And so do the fam. Change it up a bit as I don’t add 3 bean mix but add other veggies instead. Also add a couple of spoonfuls of sour cream when string through cooked pasta to make it a creamy tomato based sauce. A winner!

    Holy moly this is bursting with flavor and so much better than some pastas I’ve paid for when eaten out!! Didn’t change anything. Love how it makes loads. Will become a staple in our household.

    Submitted by michr on 30. April 2018 - 20:08.

    Made this again today, without the coconut oil, and with olive oil instead. Soooooo much better. Whole family agreed. I also added in 2 x portobello mushrooms and half a red capsicum, and some basil, and poured it on top of some homemade spiral pasta....delish!

    Quick, easy and yummy! I had everything on hand and also added in a few broccolli florets. Makes plenty of sauce. Next time I will experiment and use mushrooms and capsicum too. The coconut oil was so overpowering though, next time I will use olive oil.

    Very yummy and just brilliant for my fussy two year old who is anti-vegetables! I used leftover Christmas ham instead of bacon. I also have heaps of sauce to freeze for another meal, even after coating 500 grams of pasta in it. Thanks for the recipe.

    Submitted by Loz_658 on 7. December 2014 - 23:12.

    Love this sauce, I have made it a few times but the last was our favourite. I didn't have celery so left it out and instead added a red capsicum at step 3, I also forgot the 4 bean mix but that didnt seems to make much difference

    Thanks for the recipe, will be saving in my recipe collection.  tmrc_emoticons.)

    I used chorizo in place of bacon, amazing flavour. I didn't have zucchini, 

    so I used capsicum, mushrooms and brocolli. I served it with shaved

    parmesan cheese and kalamatta olives. Delicious.  tmrc_emoticons.)

    Wow!! This is so Delish! All my family love this including me, an awesome alternative to spag Bol. I left the stock out so wasn't too salty for my 10 month old who gobbled it down. Makes a large serve as well so I have frozen some for one of 'those' nights. Thanks very much  Love
