~ Want to make your own semi-homemade spaghetti sauce?
~ I have an easy recipe to share with you!
~ I have an easy recipe to share with you!
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a small skillet/frying pan
- Chop up 1/4 medium sized onion into small pieces
- Saute onion until it starts to get a tad bit carmel color or brownish (do not burn)
- Add 2 teaspoons of minced garlic (I have a jar I keep on hand in my refrigerator)
- saute for a few moments longer (you will be adding this mixture to another mixture shortly)
In a large saucepan, add the following ingredients:
- 1 14-oz can of tomato sauce
- 2 6-0z cans of tomato paste (I use Italian style)
- 2 tablespoons of dried basil
- fresh ground pepper
- 2 14-oz cans water
Whisk all ingredients above together, after onion/garlic/olive oil mixture are sauteed, pour into saucepan of tomato sauces and bring to a boil and then simmer 20 minutes.
You can add your own special items like chopped green pepper, etc., but I would suggest sauteing them to make them soft.

I have never made sauce from scratch, but probably should. I have an Italian daughter in law. This sounds good and easy.
