Pasta Plus Sauce
Ingredients:
- 56 oz Organic Canned Tomatoes
- 0 Onion Chopped
- 2 Carrots chopped
- 3 Cloves Garlic, sliced
- 2 tsp Garlic Powder
- 2 tbsp Minced Dry Onions
- 2 tsp Dried Basil
- 1 tsp Dried Oregano
- 0 Salt and/or Pepper to Taste
Directions:
Chop the onion and carrots. Sauté them in a large pot with a little olive oil over medium heat until the onion is translucent and the carrots are soft, about 10–15 minutes.
Add the sliced garlic and cook for another 1–2 minutes, stirring so it doesn’t burn.
Add the canned tomatoes, garlic powder, dried minced onion, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper.
Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for about 20–30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are completely tender and the flavors have blended.
Carefully transfer the sauce to the Vitamix in batches. Blend until completely smooth, allowing steam to escape safely through the vented lid.
Return the blended sauce to the pot. Simmer for another 10–15 minutes, or until it reaches the desired thickness. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
Serve over cooked pasta.
Note: For a thicker sauce, simmer it uncovered a little longer after blending.
