Go-to Marinara

Right now, my job allows me to work from home when I am not traveling. Some weeks that is the whole week and other weeks, I am not home at all! One of my *new* favorite recipes (for those nights I get in late!) is an adaptation of the famous 4 Ingredient tomato sauce. Mine is more of a 5 Ingredient tomato sauce. Here's what you do:

Ingredients:


2 14 oz cans of diced tomatoes
1/2 of a medium onion, peeled
2 cloves of peeled garlic
1/2 a stick of butter
(the REAL stuff--no substitutions!)
1 cup of chicken stock
(you can use veggie stock if you're not a carnivore!)
Salt and Pepper to taste
(free ingredients!)

Preparation Instructions:

In a medium sauce pan, combine all ingredients. Over a medium heat, bring contents to a boil. reduce to a simmer and cook until onion is soft. Using a blender (immersion or counter top), pulse the sauce until smooth and creamy. Serve over your favorite stuffed pasta and garnish with Parmesan cheese.

*The original 4 Ingredient Tomato sauce I modified is all over the web! I don't know the originator of this recipe, but it sure is tasty... especially with my modifications!
