Pesto Kissed Tomato Sauce


A nice change to basic red sauce pasta, this one mixes in pesto.

1 TBSP Olive Oil
1 small yellow onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 c tomato paste
One 28 oz can crushed tomatoes
Salt and Pepper
1/4 c vegan pesto
Any pasta noodle of your choice, I did Linguine

Heat Olive Oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, cover, and cook until softened, about 5 mins. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, about 30 seconds. Stir in the tomato paste, crushed tomatoes, and salt and pepper to taste. Reduce the heat to low and simmer 10-15 mins. Shortly before serving, blend the pesto into the sauce.
