How To Make chunky tomato mushroom sauce

  • Step 1
    Saute garlic and onion in oil and aminos for 5 minutes over medium low heat.
  • Step 2
    Add mushrooms and saute until mushrooms are done and onions are tender.
  • Step 3
    Add cherry tomatoes, oregano, salt and pepper and simmer until tomatoes are softened and give up their juice - about 10 minutes or so. Depending on how juicy the tomatoes are, you may need to add a little water.
  • Step 4
    If the tomatoes are real juicy and a thicker sauce is desired, combine 1/4 c water and cornstarch. Slowly add half to sauce, bring to a boil. Add more if needed.
  • Step 5
    Serve over pasta.
