One Pot Grown-Up Spaghetti-O-s

Dear Turkey,

I forgot how much

I loved Spaghetti-O-s, and

Then I remembered

One Pot Grown-Up Spaghetti-O-s

(serves 4, adapted from minimalist baker)

Ingredients (feel free to use whatever pasta shapes, veggies, herbs, and toppings you have):

- 1 red onion, sliced

- 2 carrots, sliced

- 2 small heads broccoli, cut up

- 1 T garlic (I used dried)

- 2 T olive oil

- salt, pepper, red pepper flakes

- 16 oz dry pasta

- 24 oz marinara sauce, crushed tomatoes, or diced tomatoes with their juice

- 2 c water, or as needed

- 1 c parsley, cut up

- more red pepper flakes, and parm (optional), for toppings

Instructions:

- In a big pot, saute the veggies, oil, and spices for 5-10 minutes, or until things are starting to get brown and delicious. Remove veggies from pot.

- Add pasta, water, and sauce to pot and simmer, stirring occasionally, adding water if needed, until pasta is al dente.

- Return veggies to pot and add parsley, stirring just until wilted. Remove from heat and season to taste. Top with toppings.

Enjoy,

Tofu
