One of the easiest sauces to make and is also very versatile. This is the healthier version though, but still as tasty. You can add 2 Tbsps butter and parmesan cheese if you are not counting calories...
1/2 cup carrots chopped
1/2 cup celery chopped
1 medium onion chopped
2 garlic cloves chopped
1 bay leaf
Few twigs fresh thyme or 1/2 Tsp dried thyme
1 cup crushed tomatoes, better to use san marzano
Salt and Pepper to taste
Saute garlic, onions, carrots and celery in a little bit of olive oil for 10 minutes with little salt. Add bay leaf and thyme once the vegetables start
to sweat and become translucent. Then add tomatoes, 1/4 cup of water and the rest of the salt and pepper and simmer for another 10 minutes. Remove the bay leaf and blend with immersion blender or in food processor. Marinara sauce is ready. It stores in the refrigerator for WEEKS!!! You can use it with pasta, meats, chicken, etc.
