Marinier sause w/.double spag. squash
Hi- I am looking for the Red sause Rachel Ray made to go with the Double Spag sause. This sause had can tomatos, Grilled Eggplant, oven grilled garlic(in the garlic paper)all blended to gether. If anyone has a way for me to get this, let me know as I have tried several ways to get that recipe and failed. Also- I remember that she cut the squash in half poured olive oil on it and cooked it in oven face down-I am not good with this computer. Please help!!
