Everyone loves pasta, so it can be a challenge to give up the cooked stuff. But it doesn’t have to be all or nothing – follow these tips so you can enjoy your pasta in any stage between cooked and raw.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Cooked Pasta with Tomato Sauce<\/span><\/p>\n

Boil wheat spaghetti noodles and toss them with jarred or canned tomato sauce.<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Partially Raw Pasta with Tomato Sauce<\/span><\/p>\n

Option 1:<\/b> Cook your wheat pasta and tomato sauce, but add the olive oil (make sure it’s cold-pressed) and salt (make it sea salt) last, so they remain raw. A little adjustment – no one will even notice – but a step in the raw direction.<\/span><\/p>\n

Option 2: <\/b>To make it a little more raw, substitute 100% whole spelt, Kamut, or brown rice pasta for your standard white or whole-wheat. This is a step toward breaking your dependency on wheat.<\/span><\/p>\n

Option 3:<\/b> To make the sauce raw, put chopped raw tomatoes in the blender, add cold-pressed olive oil and sea salt, and blend. Pour the sauce over the hot pasta to heat up the tomato sauce – the tomato sauce will be warm, but still raw. Bonus for heartburn sufferers: By not cooking your tomatoes, you might find yourself free of the burn at the end of this meal.<\/span><\/p>\n

Totally Raw Pasta with Tomato Sauce<\/span><\/p>\n

For the pasta, substitute raw squash pasta cut from a spiral slicer for the wheat pasta, and make your tomato sauce raw, as described in Option3, above. All raw – well done!<\/b><\/p>\n
