Basic Tomato Sauce

 Basic Tomato Sauce

I like to try out different combinations in my tomato sauce when I make it. This is a very simple one with onion, garlic, oregano and basil.

Makes about 3 cups                                                 0 WW Blue points / serving

1 cup minced onions

4 cloves garlic pressed

1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper

1 tsp. dried oregano

1 tsp. dried basil

2 cups tomato puree

1 cup water

1/2 tsp. sugar substitute

1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

1/2 tsp. Kosher salt

1. Sauté the onions, garlic, basil and oregano in a pot coated with cooking spray until softened, about 5 minutes.
2. Add the tomato puree, water, sugar substitute, salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
3. Cook covered over low heat for 30-45 minutes for the flavors to meld.

Enjoy!
