Serve it as is, or use it as a base for your own add-ins. Try tossing through some shredded leftover Roast Chicken or Poached Chicken, or adding a handful of spinach.

Creamy tomato sauce for pasta

Is it pink? Or orange? It doesn’t sound nearly as fun to chat to you about an orange pasta sauce. I’m sticking with pink. Pink tomato cream sauce!

“This pasta with tomato cream sauce is a less guilty way to get your creamy pasta fix!”

Tomato cream sauce – a healthier creamy pasta!

This is the first recipe I’ve made for my website after being away for almost a month, firstly on the annual RecipeTin Family trip to Japan, followed shortly thereafter by a trip with friends to New Zealand. You would think that she who sulked so mightily when she found her jeans were just as snug post-trek as they were pre-trek would be inspired to be share some bright, fresh salads, “goddess cleansing bowls”, be converted to zoodles or cauliflower crust pizza. But alas, no. She craves creamy pasta. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️ Well, at least this is a less guilty creamy pasta!  There’s a generous amount of tomato cream sauce in this pasta (you’ll see in the video) but it’s mostly tomato and milk. And actually, this can even be made without cream. Cream isn’t a pantry staple for me so I sometimes make the Creamy Tomato Pasta sauce just using milk and adding an extra dollop of butter to add richness.

I’ve provided the recipe plain which is how I usually have it, because it’s so lovely and saucy it deserves to be twirled and slurped just as it is. However, add-ins are entirely possible and I’ve provided some tips in the recipe for how to do so. Try this with a fresh garden salad with a Balsamic dressing, French or Italian dressing on the side. If you feel like going all out, add a side of Better-Than-Dominos Garlic Bread or Cheesy Garlic Bread. Enjoy! – Nagi x

Just like his Mama, he needs a creamy pasta fix every now and then too….

….. though I am happy to say his Mama doesn’t have this problem (Food Catching Chest Hair).
