Recipe for Pasta Sauce – Marinara Sauce
Here is a very easy recipe for Marinara sauce. Use it on pasta, polenta, gnocchi, meatball subs or chicken Parmesan. Very easy and healthy! Here is what you need to do for this:
• Heat some olive oil in a pan.
• Add a chopped large yellow onion. Sauté for 8 to 10 minutes until lightly browned.
• Add 4 minced garlic cloves and 2 TBS chopped fresh basil. Mix well.
• Add a 30 oz. can of diced tomatoes plus ¼ can water. Mix well.
• Add a heaping TBS of tomato paste. Dissolve well.
• Add 1 TBS dried oregano. Season with a little salt & lots of pepper.
• Simmer for 20 minutes.
• Serve with pasta, gnocchi, polenta or anything your heart desires.
• Enjoy!
