Boil a box of whole grain rotini per package directions for 9 minutes. Don't overcook it. Strain it and set aside.
Put everything along with the 1 1/4 cups of the water from the potatoes into your blender or food processor and puree it until smooth.
Pour the mixture into a saucepan and cook it on medium low heat stirring constantly with a whisk or wooden spoon until it thickens (about 12 to 15 minutes) .
In the pot you used to cook the pasta, mix the sauce and pasta together, stirring it over low heat until it reaches the desired thickness. Add a little more water if it's too thick. Let it cool allowing it to thicken a little more and serve warm.
Season with salt, pepper etc. to taste.

The sauce is also great for nachos or over veggies!
