Instructions
- Place a medium saucepan over medium heat and add 2 Tablespoons olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add ½ cup chopped onion, stirring often until soft and golden (about 5 min). Add minced garlic and stir for 1 min, or until fragrant.
- Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, salt and pepper. Bring to a light boil then reduce heat and simmer partially covered for 15 minutes.
- Finally, stir in fresh parsley then turn off the heat. Serve warm over pasta.
Notes
- FRIDGE: Place a fresh batch of classic marinara sauce, or your leftovers, into an airtight container. I like to use Mason jars! Store in the refrigerator for up to a week. Give the sauce a good shake before using it.
- FREEZER: Leftover sauce can be frozen in an airtight container. If you need to save space, store sauce in freezer safe bags and lay flat in the freezer. Freeze for up to 4 months. Allow to thaw before using.
