Question by Woodrow: What are some good recipes for pasta with tomato sauce?
I’m not looking for tomato sauce recipes, I’m looking for ideas for ingredients to add to tomato sauce when I eat it with pasta. I already know about adding mushrooms, parmesan cheese, meatballs, and basic stuff like that. I’m looking for new ideas.

Tomato-Gooseberry Salad
Image by djwtwo
We’ve started getting Cape gooseberries (sometimes called ground cherries or "husk tomatoes"; they look like small tomatillos) in our farm share this summer, along with a pint or so of different cherry, pear, and other small tomatoes. This is one of my favorite things to do with them: a chili-spiced salad. The sweet-tart flavor of the two fruits combine really well with a little bit of heat.
Take roughly equal portions of small tomatoes and gooseberries (with cherry tomatoes, this is about 2 gooseberries per tomato), remove the stems from the tomatoes and the husks from the gooseberries, and halve them all. Add one small red or white onion, thinly sliced, a pinch of salt, a little drizzle of good olive oil, a splash of sherry vinegar, and half a teaspoon of chili powder (I use my own homemade stuff, but use what you like). Toss to combine. Serve immediately, maybe with some crusty bread and a little cheese.
You can add just about any veggie you like to tomato sauce. If you saute the veggies first in a little olive oil, it will make them more flavorful. Onions, eggplant, peppers, carrots, garlic, leeks, peas, lima beans, corn, you name it. If you have any fresh herbs, chop them and add them before serving, don’t cook them into the sauce. It’s pretty hard to screw up a tomato sauce. Feel free to experiment. Goat cheese, feta, cooked bacon, sausage, whatever.
