Just curious -- if tomato sauce is homemade from real veggies as opposed to cans of veggies (or even if from cans for that matter) does it count as part of the 4.5 c of veggies?


My DH made sauce tonight w/ tomatoes, carrots, zucchini, onion, and red bell pepper pureed in the blender.  It was almost like a thick juice so I'm wondering if it counts like V8 or if it doesn't count at all.


Sorry I didn't search for an answer.  My experience with the search function has not been profitable today.


Thanks!

It's all vegetables, right?

It was and I did!


Knowing it counts as veggies is just a bonus -- I may even end up with more than 4.5 c today.


Thanks for the good news.
