Spaghetti Sauce

by Heidi

This is my homemade recipe for spaghetti sauce. I made it up a long time ago. I am sure others have come up with similar things! But this is my version.

Here is what you are going to need:
3 Tb olive oil
1 onion
4 cloves of garlic
1 large can of petite diced tomatoes
fresh mozzarella
salt pepper
sugar
basil
fresh parsley
bay leaf

I start by heating up about 3 tablespoons of olive oil, once it is heated I add 1 chopped onion….heat this until the onions are translucent! Then add 4 cloves of garlic chopped, and 1 bay leaf….heat for about a minute. Then add 1 large can of petite diced tomatoes. Let this simmer for about 8 minutes.

Then I take a potato masher and mash the tomatoes.

I then add 1/2 teaspoon of salt, pepper to taste, 1 Tb. sugar, and 1 teaspoon of basil. Mix those spices in well.
Right before you are going to serve this, chop up about 3 handfuls of fresh parsley and mix it in.

After you place the sauce on the noodles top with fresh chunks of mozzarella.
