Sneaky Veggie Spaghetti
This spaghetti recipe is packed with hidden vegetables, making it a perfect meal for toddlers who are picky eaters. The vegetables blend seamlessly into the sauce, providing essential nutrients without compromising on taste.
Start by gathering all the ingredients on your kitchen counter. Wash and chop the carrots, zucchini, and bell pepper into small pieces.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped vegetables to the skillet and sauté them for about 5 minutes until they are soft.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant. Pour in the crushed tomatoes and stir to combine with the vegetables.
Add the dried oregano, basil, salt, and pepper to the sauce and mix well. Let the sauce simmer on low heat for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
While the sauce is simmering, cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions in a large pot of boiling salted water.
Drain the spaghetti once it is al dente and return it to the pot. Pour the vegetable sauce over the spaghetti and toss to combine thoroughly.
Serve the spaghetti warm, optionally garnished with grated cheese.
