Marinara Sauce

Forget about the Ragu, homemade is so much better!

Start by sauteing onion and roasted garlic in olive oil.

In large pot, pour 28 oz can of stewed tomatoes (fresh chopped tomatoes are even better if you have the time) and 12 oz can of tomato paste.  Add onion and garlic to sauce along with: fresh basil, parsley, sugar, salt and pepper.

Simmer for as long as you can stand (I put mine all in a crockpot so I didn't have to babysit it as much) 1-2 hrs at least.  Then, using an immersion blender, puree the sauce until smooth.

You can use this for spaghetti and meatballschicken parmesan or whatever your taste buds are craving!
