I dehydrate my own tomato leather so one has to replace dried tomatoes for the leather.
About 1/2 cup dried tomato leather 3 large fresh Roma tomatoes 1 thin slice of large sweet onion 1 celery stalk chopped 1 large pitted date (use two if it isn't large) 2 large fresh garlic, mashed and chopped 1 tsp. Italian dried seasoning 1/4 tsp. cumin 1 Tab. dark Miso 1/8 tsp Celtic Sea salt (or to your liking) dash ground Chili Chipolti pepper
Get all the ingredients out of the frig about an hour before making the sauce.
Chop dried and fresh tomatoes up a bit. Blend the fresh tomatoes, then add other ingredients in the blender.
Zucc. pasta. Before you make the sauce make the pasta first and a little bit of salt. Stir up and let sit while you make the sauce. Pour off the water from the pasta. Rinse salt off if you want with warm water. Drain well or pat dry. Put pasta in a large salad bowl and stir in the sauce. You can top with chopped mushrooms marinated in shoyu for one minute, chopped fresh basil and sprinkle on top, nut meat or my fav. is nut Parmesan cheese.
Serve with an Italian Green salad with raw olives salt cured (soak olives to remove most of the salt),. The bread can be a raw grain or corn wrapper.

That sounds really yummy beany. Here is a another quick one I make every week. I also mix some of this with oil & vinegar dressing to make an herbed tomato dressing
4 roma tomatoes 6 pieces of sun-dried tomato 2 Tbl. of red onion (or more to taste) 1-2 cloves of garlic 2 Tbl. olive oil 1/2 tsp. sea salt 1 tsp. basil and Italian seasoning 1/2 tsp. honey
Blend all ingredients in the VitaMix until well blended but not hot. Serve and enjoy.
Blessings, Cathy

Thanks mamoo.... thats me and my oldest daughter.. Sophia on her 14th birthday. We only have one email address (and we like it that way), so she couldn't sign up here on her own (for the teens only thread). So, we put a picture of both of us on so when she signs her name, there will be a picture.

Lamplighter, ZESTER: I dont know if it would work. You will need long strips. For noodles I use a potato peeler (yes I have a mandolin but the peeler is faster) . For spaghetti size you would need a Spirilizer .
I have a special zester that I use to make long, thin, pasta-like strips. I can do that with orange or lemon peel as well. It's like a peeler, but it has vertical blades in it to cut the peeling into spaghetti, so to speak I'll have to post a link if I can find one. Don't even remember where I got it!
Do you eat butternut squash raw? I'd love to hear how. I have one sitting on the counter that I'd love to get in to if I can figure out how to use it.
I like butternut squash made as a pasta and pour a raw white sauce over it. Then sprinkle chives over that. You could also make a white cheese sauce. You can also use your zester and make strips for salad. Sweet Tomato Restaurant has Butternut- squash made like that. It can also replace pumpkin for raw pumpkin pie and raw pumpkin cookies. If you like raw veg. sushi, use thin strips for part of the ingredients. Also good in raw veg. stew.
I am thought out for right now,
