This dishes is like party to me, when I throw everything I love in one pan, say carb (owhh yes I love carb), smoky tofu, tomatoes sauce, spinach, avocado, sprinkle of chilies, say no more,
The main reason this dishes exist is from fridge foraging and I cooked anything I could find, but the idea are pasta in tomatoes sauce, the smoky tofu in tomatoes sauce are leftover from my vegan lasagna, so for the rest I just put it together.
You can steal the idea though, this dishes are very far from traditional, just the idea are the authentic one, for the rest are fusion. so I am so sorry traditionalist, this dishes are my interpretation from traditional Italian tomatoes sauce.
So shall we?
