Notes
- Try adding a quarter cup of red wine for even more flavor.
- If you don’t have Italian seasoning, add extra oregano and some basil. While dried herbs work well, consider using fresh herbs if you have them on hand.
- Roasting the herbs and spices before adding them to the crockpot will add a nice depth of flavor to this sauce.
- Try mixing some parmesan cheese into the sauce as it's cooking.
- Periodically taste the sauce as it cooks, and don't hesitate to adjust the seasoning. This ensures that the sauce perfectly suits your taste preferences.
- Cooking times may vary depending on the size, make, and model of your slow cooker. Make sure to consult your manual as necessary.
- Storage - keep sauce in an airtight container inside the fridge for 5 days.
