Chef Joey's Leftover Spaghetti Side
"I created this recipe because I had some left over whole wheat spaghetti but didn't know what to do with it. Once the dish was finished, I topped it off with some freshly grated Romano cheese!"

- 7
- Serves:
-
4
ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 1⁄2 cups chicken stock
- 1⁄3 cup spaghetti sauce
- 5 cups cooked whole wheat spaghetti
- 1 medium onion (chopped fine)
- 3 garlic cloves (minced)
- salt and pepper (to taste)
directions
- In a medium skillet on medium high heat, saute the onion in the olive oil until just transparent.
- Lower the heat to medium low and add the garlic and saute until the garlic is just cooked. About 5 minutes.
- Add in the chicken stock and spaghetti sauce. Stir this around until the whole thing is mixed well. Simmer for a few minutes.
- Add the cooked spaghetti and stir, breaking up the spaghetti into smaller pieces. Let this simmer but keep stirring, it might stick.
- You might want to add more chicken stock at this point. Its up to you.
- Taste this and add your salt and pepper. I like mine a little hot, so I always add more pepper.
- Put in a bowl and top with some fresh grated cheese. I like Romano but Parmesan would work well too.
- Bon Appetit!

I was born in northern Ontario in Canada. I am of Irish /Spanish/French Canadian descent.
In 2002, myself, my hubby Stu, and our dog Ginger moved to the high desert of New Mexico.
I am a Domestic Engineer and a Professional Artist. I enjoy oldies, classical and jazz music.
My hubby is a Professional Jazz and Classical Musician. He plays with the Albuquerque Philharmonic Orchestra which is wonderful because I get to see all his concerts and they are free!
We are trying our best to live a Green and Sustainable lifestyle which is no easy feat in a desert.
I love any cookbook that promotes good health and tasty meals. I enjoy pasta dishes and sweet vegan deserts. I have found that I am very successful in converting conventional recipes to vegan. This has allowed me to enjoy all types of foods that I other wise could not.
Some day we would like to relocate to upstate New York and be closer to my family in Canada and my husbands in New York. My DH retires in 9 years, so nothing will stop us from heading home then :-)
