I simmered two cans of diced tomatoes and some red wine for a long time, then added nooch and Italian seasoning then blended it and served over pasta. I microwaved a can of cannelini beans with some diced carrots and fresh lemon juice from my tree and nooch for a 8 minutes until the carrots were soft. The spinach was frozen and also microwaved with salt, pepper, lemon juice and some diced local jalapeño chilis that are hiding in there.
