PASTA WITH PEPPER AND TOMATO SAUCE
Pasta is a perfect vehicle for showing off late summer vegetables. Pasta dishes also are great way to get more vegetables, as they're often concentrated in the accompanying sauces and toppings. Between the peppers and the tomatoes, this dish is packed with lycopene, as well as vitamins C, A, B6 and K. If you use a food processor to puree the sauce, be sure to strain it afterward for a smooth, elegant texture.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet or heavy casserole over medium heat. Add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about five minutes, and add the garlic and peppers. Add a generous pinch of salt, and cook, stirring often, until the peppers have softened, about 10 minutes.

Cover, reduce the heat and simmer another 15 to 20 minutes (or longer), stirring occasionally until the mixture is thick and fragrant. Taste and adjust seasonings.
- Remove the basil sprig, and put the peppers and tomatoes through the fine blade of a food mill, or puree in a food processor and press through a strainer. Return to the pan, and keep the sauce warm while you cook the pasta.

Stir 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water into the sauce, then drain the pasta and toss with the sauce. Serve with Parmesan or grated ricotta salata.

Steps:
- In a food processor, puree the tomatoes to a smooth creamy consistency.
- Add olive oil to a large pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the onions and saute until they are soft, and before it actually starts browning a bit, add the garlic. If you'd like to make the sauce spicier, add a pinch red pepper, optional.
- Add the tomatoes and season with salt and pepper.
- Simmer on a medium-low flame for about a half hour. Thrive for balance in the consistency of the sauce, it has to be fluid but it should not look overly wet. A few minutes before taking the sauce off the fire, add half the basil and season with salt and pepper.

ROASTED RED PEPPER TOMATO SAUCE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Cut off and discard top quarter of garlic head and wrap remainder in foil. Arrange tomatoes, cut sides up, in a foil-lined 13- by 9- by 2-inch baking pan and sprinkle lightly with salt. Add whole bell pepper and garlic (in foil) to pan and roast vegetables in middle of oven 1 hour.
- Transfer bell pepper to a bowl and cover bowl with plastic wrap, then let stand about 20 minutes. When cool enough to handle, peel pepper, discarding stem and seeds, and transfer to a food processor or blender along with tomatoes.
- Unwrap garlic and squeeze roasted cloves from skin into food processor. Add remaining ingredients and salt and pepper to taste, then purée sauce until smooth.
Tips:
- Use ripe tomatoes. The flavor of your sauce will be much better if you use ripe, flavorful tomatoes. If you can't find ripe tomatoes, you can use canned crushed tomatoes instead.
- Roast the red peppers. Roasting the red peppers gives them a smoky, sweet flavor that will add depth to your sauce. You can roast the peppers in the oven or on a grill.
- Use a good quality olive oil. The olive oil you use will also have a big impact on the flavor of your sauce. Use a good quality extra virgin olive oil for the best results.
- Don't overcook the sauce. The sauce should be cooked until it is heated through and the flavors have melded together, but it should not be overcooked. Overcooked sauce will lose its flavor and become watery.
- Season the sauce to taste. Once the sauce is cooked, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or garlic.
Conclusion:
This spaghetti with tomato and red pepper sauce is a delicious and easy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The sauce is made with fresh tomatoes, roasted red peppers, and garlic, and it is simmered until it is rich and flavorful. The spaghetti is cooked al dente and tossed with the sauce, and the dish is finished with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
