Marinara Sauce

This recipe is a combination of the Buca recipe and the flavors I remember from Shakey's. Not bad for a Polish girl!

  • salt and pepper to taste

  2. Add the onion and garlic. Cook until translucent.

  3. Add remaining ingredients, except basil.

  4. Cook over low heat for 30 minutes, stirring often.
