Roasted Pepper Sauce

Penne pasta served with tomato sauceImage via WikipediaOne of my favorite sauces was a RED PEPPER Sauce.

My Dad, just loved this, specially cause it was a great substitute for spaghetti sauce... Enjoy this


  • 1/2 cup roasted red  bell Peppers (bottled, canned or fresh)  (ground)


  • 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic


  • 1/2 cup tomato sauce, no salt added


  • 2 tablespoons olive oil


  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasonings


  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper chili flakes (if spicy desired)


  • Also- use Ground Turkey for Meat Balls

    I would use 1/4 tsp of anise seeds- ( ground if you like ) 
    Tbs of Mrs Dash
    Tbs of black pepper to taste
    Egg beaters- 1/4 cup
    1/4 cup of  bread crumbs
    1/2 of a onion diced 
    Mix all together -make small balls and place on a cookie sheet- place in a 350 oven until done
    Put into the cooked sauce
    This makes a great sauce
    Also you can double this... so you can use for other great dishes
