Kiss The Cook Spaghetti

Kiss The Cook Spaghetti

This is a wonderful follow-up to a big garden, raw vegan salad! Mixture freezes very well and makes a great meal in a hurry! Spice amounts can be increased or decreased to taste. Any canned or powdered product can be substituted with fresh vegan food. Add less distilled water and it works great as a vegetarian pizza sauce. Tastes great prepared the night before and then reheated.

The reason it's called "Kiss the Cook" Spaghetti Sauce: I leave the bay leaf in the sauce and our tradition is that whoever gets it has to kiss the cook! (2 leaves might mean 2 kisses!)
