best ever tomato sauce
Not even sure where I happened to come across this recipe, but I was looking for a tomato sauce for my stuffed cabbage rolls. My DH said this was the only sauce he ever wanted me to use {he says that about a lot of the things I cook, LOL}. This works great for cabbage rolls, stuffed green peppers, or pretty much any casserole/hotdish/goulash that needs a red sauce.

Ingredients
- 1 can 8oz tomato sauce
- 1 can 6oz tomato paste

How To Make best ever tomato sauce
-
Step 1Mix all together and cook out the flavor of the canned tomato products.
-
Step 2Can cut a carrot into sticks & replace the brown sugar. Adds a deeper richer flavor & tends to stick/burn less than the sugar does. Tastes great too if you want to eat the softened cooked carrot.
-
Step 3Bay leaves can be ground up in a spice/coffee grinder & added to the sauce in place of the whole leaf(s).
