Artichoke Mushroom Tomato Sauce

Monday, August 22, 2022
Artichoke Mushroom Tomato Sauce is a hearty vegetarian sauce we love in our house. It has so much flavor and is easy to make in under 30 minutes. We love it over pasta, or spaghetti squash.

Since it's Monday I thought it was the perfect day to revisit a quick, inexpensive, meatless Monday family favorite Artichoke Mushroom Tomato Sauce.

I've had several readers ask for healthy quick meals or a filling meal on a budget and this is a definite go to lunch or dinner in our house for either of those.

Artichoke Mushroom Tomato Sauce over pasta is a great meatless Monday dish since it is inexpensive, easy, and satisfying. It is also extremely budget friendly if you can find canned artichokes on sale.

My kids love this, but my kids do eat most veggies and love artichokes.

Here's how to make Artichoke Mushroom Tomato Sauce:

Sautéed onion, celery, and mushrooms in a stainless steel pan.

Sauté in a large pan:
  • 2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 whole Chopped Medium Sized Onion
  • 2 ribs Chopped Celery
  • 1/2 pound Sliced Mushrooms
 Over medium high heat until onions caramelize.

Add: 
  • 2 tablespoons Italian Seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt or to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper 
Or if available some fresh basil, rosemary and oregano instead of Italian Seasonings. My poor basil plant looks to poor to cut up right now, hopefully it will recover as the weather improves.

Tomatoes added to onions, celery, and mushrooms in a stainless steel pan.

Add:
  • 58 ounces Canned Tomatoes, Diced (I really like San Marzano Tomatoes when I can get them.)
  • 6 ounces Tomato Paste
  • 3 cloves Garlic, Minced (Feel free to add more if you love garlic like me!)
Stir well and cover. Reduce heat to low and simmer 15 minutes.


Add 13 ounces Artichoke Hearts Canned in Water, Chopped

Stir well and serve.

Enjoy over pasta or cooked spaghetti sauce. We also love it in Lasagna.  I like rotini cooked until al dente and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.

    1. Hi Rini, Yes Farfelle works great we've enjoyed the sauce with all sorts of pasta! I only use rotini because it reminds me of childhood! Have a wonderful day!

  10. Delicious! I made it last night with soft polenta. It makes plenty of sauce so we'll have the leftovers today for lunch with the hardened polenta. The house smelled so good. I also used all fresh herbs and doubled the amount called for the dried. My husband and I just got back from Italy, so we are trying to "extend" our trip by eating Italian food back home...
