Kala's pasta sauce
We don't really cook from a recipe, we just kind of thrown things together. Mike did this one, here is what went into the last batch.
We let it cook/simmer in our Dutch Oven for about a day. Then split it into freezer bags and we always have a low sodium, heathly sauce in the freezer to use.
This on had 3 freezer bag servings for paste and one smaller serving size for homemade pizza.
We don't put meat in the sauce, we add the meat by dish when we use it.
2 - 28oz cans of dei fratelli no salt tomato puree
2 - 28oz cans of Full Circile Crushed tomoatos with basil
2 - cloves of garlic - finely chopped
2 - onions chopped and sauteed
1 - jar of stewed tomatos give to us by a friend.
Seasonings to taste, Mike uses a whole bunch of stuff, I am not even sure what he used this time.
