\nI wasn’t feeling particularly fabulous this morning. Nothing serious, just this weird feeling of waking up exhausted and groggy. I guess the rainy and grey weather didn’t help, too. So I munched on some crispy oat cookies and played a lot of The Sims 2 \ud83d\ude42 When my eyes started to get blurry of all this video gaming and computer work, I went for a refreshing bicycle ride. Usually I spot some wild animals, but not this time. I guess it’s just too early, they are more active during the sunset. Just one day I saw this deer family and of course rabbits and foxes are regulars here. Yesterday I looked outside and there was our familiar fluffy squirrel eating loads of nuts in our hazelnut tree. Can this creature be any cuter? Never a boring moment living in the forest!<\/p>\n

\nAfter my bike ride, I made us noodle soup and sat behind the computer to write down this delicious new recipe for you. I’ve been into one pot pastas<\/a><\/b> lately, since they are so easy to make in our cabin’s kitchen and they heat up so well. But sometimes you just want a separate sauce. Marinara is always a classic choice and you really can’t go wrong with that. Only if you make it too sour. If there’s one vegan food I truly can’t eat, it’s the sauces that are too sour. So I always add enough sweetener to balance it out. Coconut palm sugar or any unrefined sugar is a good choice here. Good marinara also has a subtle taste of different herbs.<\/b> I used dried thyme and basil and they were perfect. I also added some paprika powder<\/b> to get this beautiful deep red color.\u00a0<\/div>\n
\nBut why whole mushrooms<\/b>? They are just so much fun. No chopping needed, just throw them in a pan and they will soak in all the delicious marinara flavors. Plus they look a little like meatballs. This sauce is wonderful when reheated<\/b>. So if you are in a hurry, keep it in the fridge for a day or two and then heat it up when it’s lunch or dinner time. Serve it with your favorite pasta, it can be gluten-free<\/b>, too. I used tagliatelle this time. If you have more time, you can make your very own pasta from scratch<\/a><\/b> without a pasta machine! And if you are really into red pasta sauces, definitely try this super filling almond Bolognese<\/a><\/b>.<\/div>\n
\nIf you didn’t read the news<\/a><\/b>, I have a brand new mailing list<\/b>! It’s much more personalized and informative and if you haven’t subscribed<\/a><\/b> yet, I strongly recommend it!<\/div>\n

\nHappy cooking and let me know how you liked the sauce \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
