Hidden Veggie Sauce!

So I’m back with another recipe but this has been highly requested over on my instagram and no wonder, Lets face it, sometimes it can be a bit of a power struggle to get our little angels to eat the good stuff.

So here I have an amazing recipe that includes 5 different veggies in the one dish! The best part of this is your kids will NEVER know they are in there, it takes no time at all and this sauce actually tastes better with all these vegetables in it than without!

DON’T BELIEVE ME TRY IT FOR YOURSELF!

You will need

• 1 courgette
• 1 onion
• 1 celery stick
• 2 carrots
• 1 red pepper
• 4 tins of chopped tomatoes
• 2 cloves of garlic
• Mixed herbs

First off you will want to wash and chop all the above veggies, chuck them in a frying pan with a little oil, I use this coconut oil but you can use any oil of your choice, then add your garlic, This is such an amazing superfood so you really want too be adding this to your little ones diets to help ward off any illnesses the natural way.

Let these cook on a low temp until soft, Then add in 4 tins of chopped tomatoes, sprinkle in some mixed herbs and leave to simmer for 15-20 mins.

Once that’s done all you have to do now is whizz it all up in your blender, If you would rather not have a smooth sauce you can always just skip this, but if your kids are anything like mines the slight trace of onion is enough to send them into a complete meltdown. We use the Nutribullet and absolutely love it, I could not be without it!

And that is it! It’s that simple! I usually batch cook this and it makes 3 nights worth of dinner! for example the first night we will have arrabiata pasta, second night spaghetti Bolognese and the third night a chilli, all from the one recipe so this really is a staple for your household to help us busy mums & Dads whip up delicious, nutritious meals every night with no fuss!

I hope you enjoy this recipe and your family loves it as much as we do!

Thanks so much for reading
