The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves of garlic (minced)
  • 28 ounce can whole (peeled tomatoes)
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instruction

  • In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Saute minced garlic in the olive oil for 1-2 minutes, until slightly golden and fragrant.
  • Add whole tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Cook over medium heat, breaking apart the tomatoes with a wooden spoon.
  • Add several basil leaves to the sauce, if you wish, and simmer together for 20-25 minutes, until the sauce is thick and broken down with just some chunks remaining.
  • Remove basil leaves from the sauce and transfer to a blender. Blend until smooth. Return sauce to the pan and keep warm until ready to serve.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4-5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
