Homemade Pasta Sauce
- small can pasta sauce (plain, no seasoning)
- tomato paste
- can whole or crushed tomatoes (you can also use fresh! 2 cups of fresh equals about 14.5 ounces chopped tomatoes. When we use fresh we don’t peel, but you may want to!)
- Italian seasoning (we used oregano, basil, marjoram, sage and white pepper. You can use whatever you like!)
- Burgundy wine
- garlic
- Combine everything in one saucepan. Bring to a boil. Turn down heat to medium-low or low. Let simmer for about an hour. This will cook down.
My opinion:
This was wonderful! Easy and filling. We actually originally used too much Italian seasoning, but by adding the wine and a can of tomato sauce, everything blended very well. In the future, we’ll add onions and maybe some green peppers to add variety as well as some red pepper flakes.
