Pasta with veggie sauce

Wonderful box with great veggies from Backyard Produce this week. One of which was Turnip Greens. Had some red pepper and onion too and I had some tomato that needed to get used so came up with this sauce that I poured over spaghetti noodles. Yum! 








1 bunch of turnip greens, cleaned, stripped from stalk and chopped 
2 carrots or 6 baby carrots, grated
4 cloves of garlic, grated
1 medium onion, diced
1 medium red pepper, diced
1 tomato, diced
1 cup white wine (or veggie stock)
1 15 ounce can tomato sauce
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon Italian herbs
salt and pepper
1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup shredded Italian blend cheese

1 box spaghetti, cooked and drained, place in serving bowl don't forget to salt water!

In large saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Grate in garlic and stir until garlic starts to brown. Add in carrots, pepper and onion. Let cook for about 5 minutes, stir often, until onion starts to turn clear. Add tomato and cook another few minutes. Add herbs and white wine and simmer for about 15 minutes. Pour in the tomato sauce and bring back to a simmer then add greens and cook until they wilt down, about 5-7 minutes. 

Pour sauce over top of noodles and stir until all noodles are coated. Sprinkle cheese on top, stir to melt in and serve.
