Snow Family Spaghetti

I’ve been dying to make this ever since I saw Sara Snow make this on her show (Get Fresh with Sara Snow on Discovery Health). It looks real simple, but what I’m really looking forward to is just how hearty and healthy it is. It’s not even 5pm right now, but I think I’ll head off to the kitchen and start dinner early tonight.

1 large onion
2 garlic cloves
1 package mushrooms
1 pound spinach
2 medium zucchini
1/2 pound tofu—firm, drained and mashed (or use meatless soy crumbles)
1 jar organic spaghetti sauce
1 can stewed, chopped tomatoes
salt & pepper
bay leaf
oregano
1/2 tsp. sugar or tamari

Saute onion, garlic, mushrooms, spinach, and zucchini. Cover and cook; mushrooms should be about 1/2 their original size. Add tofu (or soy meat substitute). Add spaghetti sauce, tomatoes, and seasonings. Balance with sugar or tamari (to taste).

Serve over whole wheat spaghetti or your choice of pasta. Don’t forget the fresh parmiggiano reggiano!
