The other day I was following a recipe for a carrot/red pepper soup from The Vegetarian Times magazine. I had some soup left over the next day and decided to use it with tomato Sauce and some extra ingredients to make an interesting sauce to eat with fried zucchini. I think the sauce came out really well. I didn't duplicate it today but I added similar ingredients.

Ingredients:
1 carrot
1/2 red pepper
1/4 red onion
1 garlic clove
1 bay leaf
pinch curry powder
red pepper flakes 1/2 tsp (add more to make it spicy)
dried or fresh basil (1 tbsp of dried basil)
oregano (1/2 tbsp of dried oregano)
salt to taste
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp parmesan cheese
can of tomato sauce

Boil the carrots, pepper and onion till the carrot pieces are tender. Drain most of the water but leave about half a cup remaining. Add this mixture to the blender along with 1 garlic clove and tomato sauce. After blending add the sauce to a pot with olive oil and a bay leaf. Let the sauce cook on low-med, add a pinch of curry powder, red pepper flakes, oregano, basil and salt. Finally, add some parmesan cheese.
