Two Pasta Sauces

We love pasta! If I make pasta, hubby will eat it all. I have a number of pasta recipes, some I've shared on this blog already. Here are two more that I love. The first one is so simple, yet supremely delicious. It will change your life; honest. The second is a less caloric version of a tomato cream sauce. Feel free to amp up the richness by using heavy cream or sour cream. I tend to use what I have on hand. Note also that neither recipe uses spices. Before you start dumping in the basil and other Italian spices and heaven forbid--meat, give them a try as is. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by how flavorful these tomato sauces are. Enjoy.

Broccoli Soup

So many times I try to make a broccoli soup that reminds me of the broccoli, rice and cheese casserole my Mom made for holidays. But, sigh, I can never quite pull it off. Last time I tried, it was a glorious mess, albeit edible  This recipe is a good substitute, a whole lot lighter and makes for a good lunch or light dinner. Make sure to serve it with a good crusty bread so you can sop up ever drip. This is vegetarian if you use vegetable broth.
