Pasta with Vegetable Ragù without Ground Meat

The pasta with vegetable ragù without ground meat is just as flavorful. The chosen vegetables sautéed and simmered in olive oil blend together, giving more flavor than when they are boiled.

I recommend trying this ragù when you don’t have ground meat or to try a different recipe.

With a special pasta shape like caserecce or fusilli, you can enjoy this first course to the fullest, but if you prefer other shapes, that’s fine too.

Pasta with Vegetable Ragù without Ground Meat

If you prefer, you can coarsely blend the vegetables or do as I did, blending only part of them.

If you have other vegetables to use up, like bell peppers or eggplants, you can use them for this recipe.
