Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 3 large garlic cloves, minced
- 28 ounces whole peeled tomatoes (no additives)
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.
Add the finely chopped onion to the saucepan and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until it becomes fragrant.
Pour in the whole peeled tomatoes, including their juices. Use a wooden spoon or potato masher to break the tomatoes into smaller pieces.
Add the dried oregano, dried basil, sea salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes to the saucepan. Stir to combine all the ingredients.
Bring the sauce to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low to maintain a simmer. Let it cook uncovered for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. You can also use an immersion blender to achieve a smoother texture if preferred.
Serve warm over your favorite Whole30 compliant dishes, or let it cool before transferring to a jar for storage. The sauce can be kept refrigerated for up to one week or frozen for up to three months.
