Shredded Roast Pork Loin and Pasta image

This recipe makes a delicious pasta sauce (which is considerably "lighter" and more subtle than a typical marinara) while using "leftover" pork loin roast. The results, when combined with a fresh green salad, make a quick and easy dinner. By the way, if you go to the trouble of bringing out the food processor for the tomatoes, put it to work on the vegetables as well. It speeds up the recipe and smooths out the pasta sauce.
