Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small onion diced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 cup carrot grated
- 1 small zucchini diced
- 1/4 green pepper diced
- 14.5 oz. diced tomatoes 1 can
- 1 can tomato paste
- 2 cups V8 juice I used low sodium
- 1 tablespoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 large bay leaf
- 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
- salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Saute onions for 2 minutes. Stir in zucchini, carrot and bell pepper and saute another 5-7 minutes. Stir in garlic until fragrant, another minute or so.
- Mix tomato paste into sauteed vegetables and then pour in remaining ingredients for the sauce. Bring to boil and then reduce to simmer.
- Cover and cook for 30 minutes or longer if need be. The sauce will thicken, so thin out with a little water if you like it runny.
- Serve with hot spaghetti and parmesan cheese.
