This hidden vegetable sauce recipe for the Thermomix is a simple sauce that’s super versatile.
Having hidden veg makes it perfect for fussy children anyone!
Great to spread onto a pizza base or scrolls, or stir through pasta for some extra goodness. I also sometimes have it for breakfast with eggs, and Russ loves it for dinner with lamb chops.
This recipe also appears in my cookbook, Main Meals Made Easy, which you can check out here. It’s a book filled with dinner delights and is extremely popular amongst Thermomix owners.

We throughly enjoyed this bed.. kids loved it. I like how you can use this in so many different wears.. thank you!!!
Definitely a versatile sauce and I love the veggies in it. We had with pasta tonight. Next time I make it I will add extra garlic and I might reduce the celery, purely for texture reasons. I also added salt. I served it with olives and drizzled extra olive oil on it.
This had the thumbs up for pizza scrolls for school lunches & a pasta dish I did for dinner tonight. The kids are pretty fussy with pizza sauce so I’m very pleased! Thank you!
Restocked the freezer. Added a random beetroot ftom the fridge today. Plan to have meatballs and sauce tonight.
Just making a quick batch of this sauce for some quick, throw together, easy meals for my busy working days. So versatile, I will use it for srolls, pizza sauce and pasta sauce. Love knowing my kids are getting their vegies, even if they don’t know it 😉
Such a great, versatile sauce. I made it to go in the Hidden Veg scrolls and had heaps left over. We had it on our pizzas tonight and I will never buy store bought pizza sauce again. Love the smuggled vegies!
[…] Split into 4-5 equal portions, roll out each one and top with toppings of your choice – my Very Veg Sauce is a great pizza […]
This tastes so good Bec. Thanks for sharing.
Super easy and result is delicous, this went through some pasta for a quick kids meal. I didn’t have Herbamere so I used a tsp of vege stock paste instead.
