1. Visit BettyCrocker.com, Kraft.com, Hunts.com, Pillsbury.com -- any food manufacturer, with a .com after it -- & do a search of Pastas, salads... Put main ingredient(s) in the search box, and it should pull up recipes like you want. I'll edit if I can find a few of my own to share. :) Duh, Why didn't I think of this before? Try Pasta Manufacturers (name and put a .com after it). They should have TONS of what you want!!
2. Make a vegetarian lasagna. I don't have an exact recipie just wing it and put in whatever you like. I suggest eggplant but you should fry it first.
3. 1/4 cup olive oil 3 diced tomato 2 diced onion 1 diced pepper fresh basil fresh orangeno 3 cloves garlic chopped up in a hot pan of oil add onion garlic peppers and let cook for 1 min add tomatos and basil and orangeno mix with pasta of your choice salt pepper to your taste
4. I always just throw things together like this. I love to cook. Well I just make any kind of pasta, angel hair is the best for thing kind of thing, but egg noodles work too. I just saute' the vegetables I choose in light olive oil, or light butter. (if you use oil, only like a whole cap full, no more than that or the dish will be greasy.) butter, a small teaspoon should do it. The vegetables I normally saute' are: celery, carrots, onion, (red, or white), and sometimes if we have it I use fresh garlic, and broccoli.If you use butter to saute the vegetables, don't butter the pasta. That's way too much butter, if you're trying to go light. When using tomatoes don't saute them, just put them in fresh, but crisp fresh, not all mushy, because it would ruin the dish, and that's gross. Seasoning the vegetables with salt, pepper, and sometimes a little bit of oregano, or basil adds flavor to it. When I boil the pasta, I usually add a teaspoon of olive oil, and some oregano to add the flavor to the pasta too. You can just throw things like this together without a recipe. I do it all the time. Well I hope I have been of some help, any more questions, you can contact me.
