Easy Tomato Sauce

[Guest guest]

When I don't have a jar on hand of my other more involved recipe of tomato

sauce, this one serves me quite well. Very quick to prepare. I usually add

garlic though.

 

Easy Tomato Sauce (for lasagne or casseroles)

 

1/2 cup onion, finely minced

1 carrot, grated

2 cups fresh mushrooms, sliced or chopped

1 Tbs. olive oil

2 cans (8 oz each) tomato sauce

1 can (6 oz ) tomatoe paste

1 tsp dried oregano

1 tsp dried basil

 

In hot oil, sauter onion and mushrooms until tender.

Add carrot, tomato sauce, tomato paste, oregano, and basil. Simmer for 10

minutes. Add a bit of water gradually while stirring if sauce is too thick.

Simmer longer if sauce is too thin.
