Our Thermomix Veggie Packed Pasta Sauce is easy to make, plus it can be made in advance and frozen!

All three of my boys LOVE any meal with pasta in it, so as you can imagine, it appears pretty frequently in our house – as does this Thermomix Beef and Vegetable Pasta Bake recipe. This Thermomix Veggie Packed Pasta Sauce makes a super easy family meal, can feed a crowd and best of all, you can use up any leftover veggies you may have floating around the fridge.

This recipe is perfect to make on the weekend when you are clearing out your fridge, as you then have the added bonus of doing some meal prep too.

What Vegetables Can I use in this Pasta Sauce Recipe?

It’s really up to you! The vegetables I’ve listed below can certainly be substituted for those your family enjoys or what you have leftover in the fridge, however please note the more vegetables you add to the recipe can impact the texture and cooking time.

Tips for Making this Thermomix Veggie Packed Pasta Sauce:

• As mentioned above, you can substitute the vegetables you use for this recipe.
• I find that the amount of liquid in tinned tomatoes does vary between brands. I have used the Ardmona ‘Thick’ Tinned Tomatoes for this recipe. If you find your tinned tomatoes to be quite water, you can prolong the cooking time and leave out the extra water.
• You can store the cooked pasta sauce in a freezer safe container for up to three months.
• We have also used this pasta sauce as a base sauce for pizzas.

• After 12 minutes scrape down the sides of your Thermomix bowl and check the consistency of the sauce - if you would like it 'thicker' you can cook for a further 5 minutes, 100 degrees, speed 2 with the splash guard/simmering basket on.

You can also store this Pasta Sauce in the freezer for up to 3 months.

If you would like a finer consistency, pop the measuring cup in place and carefully increase the speed to 8 to blend the sauce ingredients.
