I've been cooking with pasta sauce a bit this week.  It's high in lycopene so good for fibroid fighters, and a jar of it can be stored in the pantry so good for us busy working gals.
Specifically I have been using it to cover the flavor of fibroid fighting foods that don't taste so great on their own.
On Saturday I stir-fried some shiitake mushrooms in olive oil and then poured in some pasta sauce, and then added a serving of cooked quinoa to make a kind of porridge.  Delicious -- the sauce covered the quinoa flavor.
Today I decided to try pasta sauce as a substitute for barbecue sauce when eating my natto, as I have become sick of it.  I chopped up some leeks and garlic and stir fried in olive oil, added the pasta sauce and warmed, then stirred in a package of natto.  Poured this all over hot brown rice.  The sauce completely masked the natto taste.
