    tomato bacon pasta sauce Tomato Bacon Pasta Sauce is a favourite of Marius and me. And it's so simple to make!  The boys are still strongly in the "buttered noodles, hold the sauce, extra parmesan" phase for the last, well, their whole lives. I have hope though.

    The recipe Tomato Bacon Pasta Sauce makes 3-4 quarts of sauce, enough to feed 12-15 adults. You're not feeding 12-15 adults? Neither am I...but it's the same amount of effort to make it this way and I can freeze it for quick meals later. I can share it with friends. I also used it as pizza sauce later in the week and it was ROCKING PIZZA SAUCE.

    If you must, half the recipe, but I don't suggest it!

    Tomato Bacon Pasta Sauce is one of my favourites! And it's so simple to make and freezes well to make quick weeknight meals even easier! It also makes a ROCKING PIZZA SAUCE so try some leftovers on your next homemade pizza. You can halve the recipe because this is a big batch of sauce, but I don't suggest it!

      Hi there, this would be a great addition to the tomato theme over at Food on Friday (which is on right now). Each month there are 3 different themes plus a Potluck – so you should always be able to share something. If you would like to join in the fun on a regular basis please schedule a reminder for the second Friday of each month (NZ time). Cheers from Carole's Chatter
