Pasta with Nomato (Tomato-less) Red Sauce. Having gone through periods of constant GERD and acid reflux, I was forced to temporarily alter my diet, omitting tomatoes, onions, garlic, and many other foods. The problem was that culturally, eating pasta with tomato sauce as a component of my meal was something I did 3 - 4 times per week. The combination of tomatoes, garlic, and onion was far too much for my twisted up tummy to handle. I decided to make my own “nomato” sauce because even though I was temporarily avoiding tomatoes, I still loved to make homemade sauce. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do!
