Pasta with Hummus Sauce

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

   1 lb your favorite whole wheat pasta
   1 can diced tomatoes
   1 small can tomato sauce
   5 oz kalamata olives (pitted and diced)
   1 bag frozen spinach (thawed and drained) or 1 bag sauteed fresh spinach
   1 large container garlic hummus or equivalent homemade hummus
   1 cup textured soy protein hydrated with 1 cup water
   1/2 to 1 cup soy milk
   salt and pepper

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Grease large casserole dish.

Cook pasta according to package.

In large bowl mix together all ingredients except pasta and soy milk.

Stir in cooked pasta and add soy milk until pasta is coated and mixture is moist. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Pour into casserole dish.

Cover and bake for about 20 minutes, then uncover and bake for about 10 more minutes, or until the top of the casserole starts to get crispy.

Serve and enjoy!

I really like to use my own ultra-garlicy hummus when I make this, but pretty much any hummus will work.

Also feel free to add whatever other vegetables (broccoli, mushrooms, peppers, etc.) that you like or have on hand.

Serves: 8+

About how big is a large thing of hummus? one cup, two cups, eight cups?

Very easy, very tasty! Added bonus: a wonderful vehicle for Tabasco! (The chipotle flavor is my favorite so far...)

I love making this! I usually leave out the tomatoes, tomato sauce, spinach and tvp and maybe add a tablespoon of olive oil or EB. This time I made it with whole wheat rotinis and a homemade green veggie-garlic-pesto hummus (with broccoli, basil and spinach) and added a little vegetable juice to thin out. I also added a little nutritional yeast and wheat germ. I also added sliced olives! A great alternative to traditional red sauces and a nice way to sneak in beans, veggies, etc! Wink

I think next time I won't take pix with camera phone- hard to get the right dimensions! Sad

I thought I was the only one who used hummus as a sauce base. Tongue

A shortcut, (ie. Buffet-salad-bar-at-a-College-Cafeteria) lazy version of this is to toss pasta with half hummus, half salsa... it kinda looks like barf, but it's delicious. Tongue

I made this a couple of nights ago and while it was quite tasty it was quite dry.......but I have just reread the recipe and realised that I missed out the soy milk and tomato sauce! Ooops. Will try again and this time actually follow the recipe!!

By the way cananyone help me - in the US is your 'can of tomato sauce' pretty much the same as my tomato pureé in the UK? Cheers.

Our cans of tomato sauce are something like 10 oz I think, but tomato puree should be the same thing as sauce. =]

I have to say not bad! It took me about an hour because i added a veggie burger instead of tvp, i made homemade pasta sauce, sauteed carrots, and added olive tapenade and onions. Simple and filling. Thanks

My mum wasn't a big fan of it though.

This was absolutely fantastic! My husband and I both loved it. I followed it exactly but I didn't use olives. Thank you!
