Did you know that October is National Pasta Month? To be honest, I actually didn’t – every month is kinda pasta month around here ; ) But I’m glad for the pasta-bration never the less. Any chance to bring on the bowls o pasta is a good thing in my book. In honor of National Pasta Month, Dreamfields is celebrating with a new blogger pasta recipe EVRY day this month.

That’s 31 new recipes coming at ‘cha. 4 weeks of themed pasta dishes using different cuts of pasta. Heck to the yeah. This week is vegetarian and we’ve plucked a few red peppers out of garden and put them to good use with an easy dreamy creamy sauce that will twirl your socks off.

We used fresh red peppers BUT if you don’t happen to have fresh peppers you can absolutely substitute jarred roasted red peppers. I won’t tell. Actually my garden is at the end of it’s season (que tears, pass the tissues please) so next time I will be popping the seal on a jar myself. This sauce is simple to pull together and when mix and mingled with spaghetti makes a great weeknight vegetarian meal option.

Add some bread, a salad and a glass of wine (or water, whatever floats your boat) and you’re all set. Well unless you’d like to invite me over, that would be cool too. We are celebrating after all.

    I would like to try the lasagna cut first to make a vegetarian lasagna.

  3. Mary Happymommy says

    I’d like to try the lasagna. I like to make lasagna with turkey meat.

  4. Julie Wood says

    I want to try the Rotini first. Your recipe looks so delicious! The link for instagram did not work, I used the link up on the right side. I hope that is the right link to your instagram account.

  6. Laura J says

    Oh I would love to try the Penne Rigate first! I have a few recipes that use the penne pasta, and would love to switch to a healthier one!

  13. Rosie says

    I’d like to try the Rotini! I love all pasta, and also make my own, although I never could figure out how to make rotini!!!

  14. Annie says

    This pasta is amazing! Angel hair is always my #1 pick because it goes so well with veggie dishes.

    Thanks for the change. I’m getting hungry …

  20. David says

    Other than macaroni and spaghetti, I have no idea what the names are of the pastas we serve at our home. With that said, I would want to try their angel hair, because that is my favorite.

  22. Carole Resnick says

    I like any shape of pasta but angel hair is my favorite. Thanks for the recipe and giveaway.

  30. Lana@NeverEnoughThyme says

    I use Dreamfields almost exclusively and honestly can’t name one favorite cut. They’re all fantastic. Hard to beat a good roasted red pepper sauce, isn’t it?

  35. Carl says

    I think the regular spaghetti would be the first one I’d try. Thanks.

  37. Bea says

    Oh yes, every month is pasta month in our house as well. So delicious & comforting!
    Love your quick and easy recipe

    I love rotini…I find that sauce really gets in all the crevices!! Your roasted pepper sauce looks amazing!!!

  54. Tina W says

    I love their penne. And my brother loved their rotini. He was on a low-carb diet for medical reasons and when he realized he could eat the pasta salad I brought to a party he was thrilled beyond belief!

  57. Amy L says

    I’d like to try the lasagna. I’ve been wanting to make a veggie lasagna lately.

  59. Joanna says

    I love angel hair. It feels like I’m eating healthier since it’s so light!

    I would like to try the Dreamfields Penne Rigate. We are huge pasta fans in my house, most of the skillet meals I make are with Penne. 🙂
