Who doesn’t enjoy a delicious tomato sauce, especially when it’s packed with authentic Italian flavors? We love this sauce recipe since it is both delicious and quick to prepare. Don’t get us wrong, slow-cooked sauces that simmer all afternoon are ideal for weekends, but when time allows, we can make a batch of this throughout the week and it tastes better than any jar we’d buy at the supermarket.

We prefer to add some sugar to our sauce; the acidity of the tomatoes may easily overwhelm everything else, so we add a little sugar to balance things out. We enjoy serving this sauce over spaghetti, but it’s also great for dipping – a couple slices of warm garlic bread should enough!

We normally make a double batch so that we can freeze some homemade pasta sauce for future use. We understand how simple it is to grab a jar of sauce from the store, but give this recipe a try. You’ll be astonished by how simple it is to make homemade spaghetti sauce.
