Tomato Tagliatelle: Thermomix Recipe



Are you looking for a delicious, healthy and quick meal? These Tomato Tagliatelle to prepare with Thermomix are very yummy, genuine and most important very fast!

Cooking can be stressful sometimes especially when you come back home late in the evening and you are so tired you don't want to see even a fork! Thinking you have to prepare for all your family in a very short time scares you. So many mums decide not to prepare a first dish because they think it needs too much time.

Thanks to Thermomix and to this recipe you can prepare a very good sauce in a few minutes and then you only have to wait for pasta to get cooked ;-)

This delicious sauce recipe has been sent by Margherita from Bari who writes: "This is a recipe of mine. I love vegetables but I hate eating them without having them ground or mixed. This sauce is a perfect way for me to eat vegetables".

How can you say she is wrong? Of course it is not overloaded with vegetables but greens are there and this is important!

Vegetables are rich in vitamins and mineral salts which are two necessary things for human nutrition. Actually vitamins are essential for the maintaining of our tissues and organs structure, for the synthesis of enzymes and hormones and for the production of energy from food.

A diet doctor who is a friend of mine always tells me: "our body can't product new cells and regenerate without vitamins. Always denying yourself vegetables can cause serious malfunction of your skin, endocrine system and digestive system because our body does not produce vitamins, that is why you must bring them into your body through food".

I tried to learn her lesson :-)

In this sauce there are carrot, celery and onion that together with tomato give a high amount of vitamins and mineral salts. You must not forget that these vegetables have a special taste together which is difficult to resist! I bet children will eat this sauce without complaining too much!

If you are interested in preparing rich in vegetables first dishes with Thermomix you can try the Asparagus Pasta, the Pasta with Porcini, the Artichoke Risotto, the Zucchini Carrot and Shallot Risotto, the Asparagus Norwegian Soup or the Artichoke Pasta Sauce!
