Linguine with Tomato-Leek Sauce

The mild flavor of leeks adds a nice touch to the pasta's tomato-based sauce.

1/4 cup olive oil
2 large leeks (white and pale green parts only), chopped
1 red bell pepper, diced
1/2 head cauliflower, cut into small florets
4 large tomatoes, seeded, chopped
1/4 teaspoon dried tarragon, crumbled
8 ounces linguine, freshly cooked
Grated Parmesan

Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add leeks and bell pepper. Sauté until just beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. Add cauliflower, tomatoes and tarragon and cook until cauliflower is tender, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Pour sauce over pasta. Serve, passing Parmesan separately.
