My husband is allergic to tomatoes. This is painful for me because I'm a twice a week pasta eater. I refuse to make two meals so if I'm making pasta, he is pretty much on his own (I know, I'm mean, you can say it).
Anyone have alternatives to red sauce? I would like to be able to make pasta, lasagna, stuffed shells, etc but without the red sauce....

Cream? I make cream pasta for DD all the time. I just use heavy whipping cream and cheese!
I've had white lasagna before and it was good.. Ricotta, Chicken and artichokes!

You could make different pestos. Another one i like it's roasted red pepper pureed with garlic and a bit of cream.

Cream Sauces are great. I also make a yummy pasta of penne, grilled chicken and broccoli tossed in a sauce of olive oil, garlic and lemon juice!

I really like white wine sauces! Pestos, lemon cream sauces, and simple olive oil/red pepper sauces are also really good.

Pestos are great. Also, just keeping it simple like @MamaMoose: suggested. Maybe throw some parmesan cheese on top!

I think a roasted red pepper puree is going to give you the closest texture/liquidity.
I personally don't love cream sauces, they're just too heavy with the pasta.

Pesto.
White-wine/ lemon/ butter (scampi).
Grill mates seasoning packs- add olive oil, vinegar and use as a marinade for veggies and meat or toss pasta.

do you like seafood? we often make a seafood sauce with white clam sauce, frozen spinach and what ever seafood i pick up at the store - shrimp, calamari, clams, mussels, etc and serve over spaghetti (dont forget to simmer spinach and seafood in olive oil, garlic and red pepper before adding the sauce)
Marsala also

I like to roast (or boil) butternut squash or sweet potatoes and thin it out with a little cream and/or stock. It makes a lovely, velvety sauce.
