Rigatoni Combination

 

1/3 lb. rigatoni or other pasta

1 onion, chopped

1 clove garlic, minced

1 tsp. olive or vegetable oil

1 small can tomato sauce

1 lb. can kidney beans, drained

1 tsp. soy sauce, optional

1/4 tsp. salt, optional

1/2 tsp. chili powder

black pepper to taste

 

Cook pasta according to package instructions. Saute

onions and garlic in oil for 4 to 5 minutes or until

soft. Stir in tomato sauce, kidney beans, soy sauce,

salt, chili powder, and black pepper. Simmer several

minutes. Drain pasta when done and stir into sauce.

Serve as is, or add 1/2 cup crumbled tofu to each

serving to make a lasagna-like dish. Add hot sauce if

desired. (Decrease fat content--saute in water instead

of oil or just brush the pan lightly with an oiled

paper towel.) Serves 4.
