Notes

LC SERVING SUGGESTION: Serve over Spaghetti Squash “Noodles” (cut squash in half lengthwise and place on a lightly oiled baking sheet, cut sides down. Bake in a preheated 375-degree oven until tender. Remove from oven and set aside to cool slightly. Scoop out seeds then, using a fork, scrape squash out of its shell in long, thin [spaghetti-like] strands). Add a big green salad on the side. SERVING SUGGESTION: Serve over Angel Hair pasta instead of Spaghetti Squash “Noodles”. KOSHER: No changes necessary. GLUTEN FREE: Make sure broth, tomatoes, tomato sauce, Herbes de Provence, tomato paste (if using) and balsamic vinegar (if using) are gluten free.
